However, my VP told me MOE would only check with HR (if I am blacklisted) if I want to return as a permanent staff.

Back to your statement about processing time. According to my friend, the standard processing time is 4 to 5 weeks. I only started checking the application status after 4 weeks and it went through by the time I checked.
