Chinese Passport Renewal in Consulate in Canada?

[Schuller]

Hi All,

 

I was wondering if anyone could share some experience....

 

My Wife (Chinese Citizen with 2yr conditional green card) and I are currently living in Seattle WA area. Her Chinese passport is going to expire Fall 2009 and will need a renewal soon.

 

The Chinese consulate covering WA is way down in San Francisco. A much closer (about 1/6th the distance) major city with consulate is Vancouver BC Canada. It would work out nicely to renew the passport there as we like to visit Vancouver.

 

Has anyone renewed a Chinese passport in a third party country while visiting, not a resident?

Is it allowed by Chinese consulate?
