Wah why so expensive? $110 for 1 ticket 1 way? normal price is only $27 for normal express bus or $47 for high class bus. Are you buying at $47 to resell it at $110? Maybe you can scan and post the receipt here bcos my gf who is from Ipoh is interested to buy but only the price is freaking expensive.

BTW, maybe you can sell it Garage Sales as mods won't allow any selling being conducted over here in this thread.

Kthxbye,

only have very limited Q ticket; say 10 per day. and you have to be really really early lining up to be the first few to get in and get that ticket. just go for e-appointment. but at the moment, 2 months backlog.

if you're a fresh grad then you just explain to them that it's your first job and you don't have a previous employer... However you will still need the letter even if your previous company is in Msia.

erm, i cant provide them my previous msia company letter coz i dun have one. So how?

Would like to ask, for the e-appointment for PR application, when we go and get the ticket, will they play 'fair'? I mean those who come early but without e-appointment, will my number behind those people?
*
well..your e-appointment comes with the timeslot of your choice. so there isn't any fair or unfair issue there.

Not really. Some pointed out that they have been delayed for around 3 hours from their timeslot. Quite a common case.

Btw, my firefox showing whole year e-appointment is full! Check from IE, April will available!

Is my eyes playing me? I check 2 days to register my gf sister, February is full, and now it is available sweat.gif

You have to understand that those without e-appointment start q-ing there early in the morning in order to get the Q-number. Some even cant get it after waiting 2 hours before the office hour start and those got it dunno when will reach their turns, maybe around 10am? 11am? 1pm? 3pm?. So fair or not fair is up to your personal point of view. You got ur e-appointment, u know ur timeslot. You don't waste time q-ing and bet on the probability. Just make sure you go there an hour earlier your e-appointment timeslot. Submission process basically take around the most 15mins if nothing big mistake make on your application form and assuming your already prepared all the required documents.

FYI, ICA will cancel the e-appointment timeslot of all those ppls showing up prior to their appointed date. Let's say A make an e-appointment on 2nd Feb but he end up go there earlier and get the Q-number any date on Jan, the officer will cancel his e-appointment on 2nd Feb. So that's make sense some timeslot is available after that.

Hopes that help.
