  1. I have been looking through the forum and several people have mentioned themselves or their spouses having a prior divorce. They mentioned to bring the divorce certificate to show them the previous marriage was terminated legally. There was never any mention of the certificate needing to be translated or notarized. In my case, my wife got divorced a few years ago. She has her divorce certificate, but it is only in Chinese. Do we need to get this translated and notarized? If so, does it matter where the translation/notarization is done? We live in Shanghai and her hometown is in Hunan. We already went back last week to get all of the White Books needed for filing. I will be filing the beginning of August in Beijing. Any help and information would be much appreciated! Thank you!
  2. First, I'm just going to say thank you to all the members on the board for explaining so many things so well. I've read a few other topics on this, which have been really helpful, but we've a (seemingly) insurpassable wall here. My wife was born in 1992, and where she lives in Qingdao they didn't produce birth certificates until 1994. I know what document we need for the interview and exactly what it looks like, the 顣When we went to the notorial office, they said we couldn't get a unless we had a birth certificate (even though we had her parents' ID cards, wedding certificate, and the hukouben). They told us to go the to get that. We went to two of them, one being her hukou, the other in the city. However at both of those we were told that her ڱ and all of her other documents were enough to prove her birth, and we couldn't get any kind of birth certification. We've made many calls to /notary offices and different paichusuo, and they say we can't possibly get the documentation we need in order to get that notarized document. Any body else with similar problems, and what did you do to get past them? I have a feeling this is just bureaucracy in China, but I'm worried if we can't get this if it will be an issue come time for my wife's interview and the final issuance of her visa. I also have a few other questions that I hope can be answered. In terms of notorized documents, I need (I don't know the English names, but I can explain them): 1) notorial certificate of birth 2) notorial certificate of criminal background check 3) notorial certificate of wedding certificate (hers) 4) notorial certificate of wedding certificate (mine) Am I missing anything there? Also, do I need to go in person to the. Guangzhou consulate to submit my application, and how do I set up that appointment? Do I need to have lived in China for 6 months to do DCF still? I heard you didn't. Becauese it's convenient for me to go at my 5 months and 20 plus days mark of being in China. On my travel visa I'm required to leave every 60 days, so I go to Hong Kong, spend the night, then fly back the next morning. Are my visa stamps enough proof for 6 months, if it is still needed? Thank you very much!
