hi guys just wanna ask, i've already got an offer in a SG company, waiting for Epass to be approved. What do i have to settle before heading over? Do i have to declare anything to LHDN about my current taxes etc? Or just fill up the upcoming April EA Form will do? Advices will be really appreciated, thank you! smile.gif
*
first of all, congrats !

well rmb to bring your original SPM/STPM and other certs over as you need to show MOM when processing your pass...

for tax, just wait the usual April tax filling period smile.gif

Oh, What @aLertz meant was when you are going through Singapore Customs is it when using the approved EP to get in to Singapore? Is my first time working in Singapore too, need to get many plannings done. Have you gotten a place to rent?
*
the process is like this...
company will apply EP for you, when application is approved, you'll get a paper call IPA which is like a temp pass...
with that, you can start working/rent room already...

then company HR will make appointment with MOM...
you'll have to go MOM on the date of the appointment to take picture, pass the white entry card and verify your documents which include certs etc etc...

then after a few workings days, your pass will be sent to your company smile.gif

btw, u can actually go into SG for the first time like a tourist laugh.gif

sounds good. so do you know if an existing place already has an existing internet plan/setup, if its much trouble or possible to subscribe for another one?

For fibre, there'll be 2 ports...so a house can actually have 2 fibre lines as what i'm doing now.
my landlord already got Starhub fibre broadband then i go subscribe my own fibre broadband which under M1 biggrin.gif
