"Or else what?" Singaporean NSMen can't be PR of other countries and live there anymore? I need to be employed in that country in order to get my exit permi...

nismoS132 SG

went to company. and they were asking "thought you finished already? still need to go back?"

nismoS132 SG

have you tried to apply for EP before?
do you know the maximum period they grant you is 5 years?
you seen the type of questions they ask and the kind of info they want?
did you read the letter? they want to know how long i'll be employed there. what if some unlucky guy, his company replied his contract is only 2 years, will his EP be shortened?

they don't have to check this way. that's what immigration records are for. your EP is automatically cancelled when you return.

LazerLordz SG

Bro, the sticky point is that they stated that ICA would be the final clearinghouse for EP matters.

So why this and why now.. Confused

insouciant SG

Just curious, but do you have to declare why you are going overseas?

Maybe if you say you are going to work for so and so a company... but actually not..

If you actually state that you going overseas for fun and they gave you an exit permit then they have nothing to say lah..

It's a legal document when you declare and sign off on it.

oh last time still hear u talking about going japan and now u are really in japan?? gong xi gong xi.. go chase for ur dream ok.. dun come back if u can lah... no hope for sg already lah...... KNN i missed japan i stayed in Iriya for a while b4....

p.s. nope i have not receive those letter... maybe they send to my sg company... but my no one from HR ever ask mi b4 leh...so should be never lah.. Mr. Green

How come you can get EP for 5 years. They only grant me 3 years, but never ask me for documentation.

They are so going to sabo me if they are sending it to my employer. Plus where I am now have a non-existent Postal system.. so i dunno how's the letter gonna arrive.

And yes.. i dunno why they have to verify this way. They last said they will check all EP records thru ICA.

Uncle_MooMoo SG

What is the requirement for an ep anyway?

Can't someone leave the country for a few years just to back pack/see the world?

charlize SG

They presume that unless you are one of the elites / white horses, you definitely cannot afford to go travel the world for more than 2 months. Laughing

Fatum SG

I am on a four year exit permit now ....

and it's not always so ... I come back to Singapore for holidays too ... and my EP was not canceled or anything ....

if the contract is only two years, then you should have gotten yourself a 2 year exit permit ... else that would be like lying wouldn't it ? ... if you're going to stay on further, just apply for another one ... it's not like they'll say no and force you to come back eh ...

HA HA HA

My brother just got his "Random Verification" also.

so apparently it is not as random i thought it is.

But his is sent to the Residential Address as registered when applying for his EP.
