BTW $20k enough for renovations meh? Things are cheaper here in SG?

Different ppl different requirements lo. Buy condo, mostly already got fully equipped kitchen, so only need to buy other furniture and electronics. 20k is 'enough' but then of course you can feel free to do hundreds of thousands of dollars if you want to 😬

such a shame to me then. I think my company has submitted it early this week and told me to wait for a week or so. Seems like I need to wait longer than expected then.

Is it for S-Pass or E-Pass?
You can check status from the Pass Online site.
Just use your name and passport number.
Contact the HR see if they can call up and check
if any documents needed or anything.

Check again on Monday and see.
Seems like the duration is quite random,
between 1 day to even 2 weeks.

There are too many reasons that can explain the possibility why is it taking so long,
including that your docs not sufficient, company didn't follow rules, not matching salary, worker ratio etc.
I'm sure you've checked the ep online site, What does it say?

Or you can communicate with the company HR and find out if anything can be done
to expedite the process. e.g. maybe ask them to call MOM nicely to check.

I am work pass holder. My application quite fast, just less than 1 week.
My salary is above 3k, so I prefer EP. But my HR said they have no quota.
But I thought only work permit and S-pass need quota?

No quota for EP. The HR that process your application could be Msian holding Work Pass as well. Not well verse with the ever changing MOM law

Anyway if already approved your Work Pass just accept it
