Hello,

I would like to check if anyone could advise on the time line of an employment. I read from the HK immigration website that it takes about 4-6 weeks for an EP to be approved. Anyone had theirs approved before 4 weeks? I am a Singaporean who is planning to work in HK. Thanks heaps!

Unless the company has petitioned IMMD for your employment visa and convinced them that you're needed in HK ASAP, it should take 4+ weeks. Usually 4 weeks.

Thanks for the speedy reply KnowItAll!!!

If your Employer (sponsor) has done it before then they can often get it at around 4 weeks because they are known to Immigration, and they know what they need to submit/say. If they are doing it for the first time it will tend to take longer.

It took 20 days to get mine, but i think immigration already had a file on me. I also had a well known american university and hong kong company on it.
