You can't apply for EP (if you meant Employment Pass). Only employer can do.
Secondly, if candidate's salary is less than $14000/mo employer can apply to EP only after denying all local citizen and PR applicant and provide explanation why local candidate was denied.
Thirdly, current processing time of EP is 6-8 weeks.
