patricktan Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 I always do up my Visa in Singapore and it take two days to process. 1st day submit your form at before 12pm and the next day to collect at after 2pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would not call it two days - you start at day zero and finnish on day 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVO Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Im interested to know how you get a work permit on a visa run?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenkannif Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 ^ Some people have to do runs every 3 months to get a new Non-imm B so they can extend their WP in turn. It often applies to those that don't earn the minimum wage or don't have enough capital etc. As Imm often won't extend their Visa 'cos of this. Or he might just mean he didn't get his WP on his Penang Non-imm B so now he's getting another one and will get a WP on his return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I think that going to Singapore for a visa run instead of Penang is an outstanding idea. I started doing that last year. I'll do anything to avoid Penang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
