We submit your application via the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) portal and actively monitor the status to ensure quick resolution of any queries. If MOM requests additional information, we liaise directly with MOM officers to provide clarifications, avoiding unnecessary delays.

If an application is rejected, we analyze the reasons and submit a strong appeal backed by supporting documents, improving approval chances. Our team has extensive experience in handling rejections and crafting successful appeals.

Once approved, we:
✔ Arrange for In-Principle Approval (IPA) letter issuance
