Apply for the permit based on that. will try to ask my company about this, thanks.

Got rejected because he failed to provide his degree cert? I haven't receive my degree cert also, i just give them my printed transcript and a letter which state that i'm going to graduate. And yet i can get the IPA.

QUOTE(shinnyx @ Oct 29 2012, 06:41 PM) Hi guys, Few weeks ago I've mentioned about my EP application has been rejected. The reason is because I have yet to receive a degree as I am fresh graduate and waiting for convo. As normal procedure, my school has issued me a letter of completion study and I've submit it to the company for my EP application, along with the transcripts. However, MOM has rejected the letter of completion because it doesn't shows I've been awarded for a degree, instead it wrote "will be awarded a degree". Both MOM and my college refused to give in and insist on the issue. Anyone has faced the similar issue and what can/should I do?  did the MOM specifically mentioned that coz normally they do not give reason for WP rejection Added on October 30, 2012, 10:10 amQUOTE(gseed87 @ Oct 30 2012, 09:16 AM) Got rejected because he failed to provide his degree cert? I haven't receive my degree cert also, i just give them my printed transcript and a letter which state that i'm going to graduate. And yet i can get the IPA. probably he's rejected due to other reason(s) unless MOM specifically mentioned it's due to the degree cert This post has been edited by PepsiCo: Oct 30 2012, 10:10 AM

Different person different case, you get your IPA mean it is approved and you never know the reason why MOM rejected your application.

I'm not asking you. I'm asking shinnyx coz he's pretty sure his WP is rejected due to that very reason but gseed87 managed to get his.

Hi guys,
I just get a job offer as Marketing Exec. Currently I'm still working with my current company and holding work permit but my salary is above $2k. They help me to apply EP instead of S Pass but the salary that they offer me is fall under EP category. How long is the waiting period and what is the chances for EP approval? If the EP been rejected can the company apply for S Pass? Kindly advice.

Thanks alot! what kind of experience do u have? in construction field, u have to fight for places with engineers from India, Myanmar, Phillippines etc. but after said that, there are a lot of vacancies available. again what kind of work are you doing right now? if u are in consulting line, better stick back to consulting firms. very tough to get into contractors or developers.

The company told me it's rejected due to the "missing line" in my letter of completion study, and this is the reason given by MOM. This is all i know.

Hi, mind share what is written on the letter briefy? Especially the line "has awarded / will be awarded a degree", does it exist? This post has been edited by shinnyx: Oct 30 2012, 08:50 PM

I actually wanted to find and join a property developer in Singapore but I won't mind to start off my Singapore career with a consulting firm too. But the problem is I don't know which are the top 10 consulting firms and developers.

For contractor, u can go to bcadirectory.sg and look for A1 category contractors. they r the biggest in Singapore. I'm not quite sure about developers or consultants though, can't help on that.
