You can visit the ICA website (www.).ica.gov.SG) or the "Myica" app on your phone.
Steps. 1.Click to go to the "e-services and forms" section.
2.Select the appropriate pass type to start your application.
Processing time. LTVP applications will be processed within six weeks. If your application is still within this processing timeframe, please be patient and wait to receive an email notification of the outcome of your application, or use the e-service to check the outcome of your application without having to contact USCIS to check the status of your application.
Precautions. Original documents or photocopies may be required during processing. At the same time, the applicant and/or sponsor may also be required to attend an interview. If required, ICA will contact the applicant and/or sponsor to request any additional documentation or schedule an interview.

Please note that the IPA letter is not an immigration pass and will not give the applicant a valid period of stay. If the applicant fails to complete the LTVP visa process within three months, the approved application will be cancelled.
