Which pass to stay on for a time being

Sahil0207

Hi all,

need your advice on the below matter:


My wife used to work in Singapore till Sep 2024 and after losing her job she was on visit pass.


We applied for a visit pass in November which will going to be expire on 5th Jan. In the meantime she got a job and the company will apply for pass on and after 13 Jan. Now we in the confusion:


  1. Apply DP and wait for company to apply Pass where DP might take 2 weeks and in 2 weeks company applying for employment pass. Does DP application clash with EP application.
  2. Go outside of Singapore and apply tourist visa and Wait for employment pass to apply.

TIA!

First, you can call ICA and request for an extension. They typically are welcoming and sure accept such requests with the background outlined by you.


If ICA doesn’t work, take a break, get to KL or any neighbouring country and once you return you will have 30 days visa validity (provided you have a SG tourist visa).


DP applications typically get processed in 2-4 days. Just FYI.

I had an approved DP(not issued) when my employer applied for EP, there were no clashes.
