Well we applied Oct 2021, since my passport is Indian I'm thinking it took Indian processing time which is 44 weeks which makes complet sense because today makes 46th week from the day we applied, Singapore Embassy says 9 weeks for work permit though.
For Intake I don't think it make any difference unless I'm wrong but will find out for sure.
For my case, they were waiting for me to go do a new medical check up, cos my previous check up results expired.
However, as soon as they received my new medical report, and the system shows my application status as submitted, I think they approved my application within 1 - 2 weeks.
That is why I have a concern that they havent updated my application with the new DLI information before granting my approval.
If thats the case, it will be freaking sucky as hell.
