My situation:

1. started working for 4 days (still no S pass card)
2. medical reports (Raffles) still yet to be received, 6 working days already
3. white card due 9th March (and i have used up like 5x/60 days limit)

i consulted HR and she didn giv clear answer but just 'hope' i can get medical report nxt week, and she told me i cant get extension if i hit the 60 days limit.

any advice i can possibly extend? =/

I thought your IPA already grant you the right to stay in SG? Try read through your IPA again. I can't remember d. IINM I only get my card registered after or slightly before my white card expires. I didn't go out of SG so never renew during that period. That happened thanks to my medical report that came late to the office. doh.gif
Just checked my IPA... It says... "When you get here, you can start work as a ... while your new employer asks MOM for your Employment Pass to be issued. During this time, you must also have valid stay in Singapore."

I'm not sure what that means though.

no my IPA says nothing about it, and to be worse, at the bottom of the letter it says " this IPA does not grant your stay in the Singapore, once arrival u need to get ur employer to get ur pass ASAP bla bla bla..."
