johns Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 P4 received yesterday. Jan 21st interview.I was in shock for a day before I could post. I can honestly say good timing...My Chinese visa is about to run out at the end of Feb. A bit confused and have a question. They included DS-156 English and Chinese DS-157 English and Chinese Then another set of DS-156 English and Chinese DS-157 English and Chinese making a total of 8 to fill out??? On the checklist it states 2 forms must be filled out or do they mean 1 set of English and 1 set of Chinese making 2?? Seems rather redundant?? Link to comment
Guest Gene Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Congratulations and Good Luck Link to comment
Jeikun Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Have her fill out the English forms if she is able. The Chinese forms are for if she can't do the English. And as we all know... english often appears to be the "unspoken semi-requirement"... and at any rate, it can only help. Link to comment
johnxiaoying Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Congratulations! We filled however many forms we received. I don't specifically remember but I think we did one of each in Chinese and English. You can always fill out one set and photocopy them and then she can sign them. I'd err on the side of safety and send back as many as you received, it does seem like you received one too many set. Are you taking the train to GZ or flying? My wife is in Guilin and just got some plane tickets to GZ, 5 tickets in all. Supposedly she got the last two tickets to Guilin for the 28th. They're selling out fast because of the spring festival.

wolffjw Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Congratulations John and Quanhua. I tend to agree with 'Jeikun' that it would be best to filll out all the forms. It certainly can't hurt, and it is not that much extra effort. That way, you are safe. Best of luck. Maybe we will see you there if you arrive a litle early. We wil be leaving GZ on the 20th. -jim and Ning Link to comment

We will fill out 1 in english and 1 chinese than photocopy without a signature. We love the train however if things are full (most likely) We will choose the highly comfy sleeper bus...(NOT). Our interview is Friday so I guess we will be staying the weekend until Monday afternoon?? Link to comment
Jeikun Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Maybe all the Friday interviewers can do something on the weekend to celebrate while waiting on the visa Monday. Sorry I can't make it, but I bet Jun would love the idea. Link to comment
