(Sorry admins, if I am not posting this under a proper discussion groups, please help to correct it if necessary) My situation: I am currently on Z-visa. However, it looks like after I quit my job, I still need a month or two in China to wrap up everything before I leave China. My concern: I heard that once you quit your job, your sponsor company will cancel your visa (which is directly linked with the residence permit). I did my homework before I post this topic. I read that although your work visa will be canceled as long as you have residence permit with you, you are still legally staying in the country ? Some say, once the work visa is canceled, your sponsor company would also ask you to go to local PSB to cancel your residence permit? 1. Whatever cancellation I might have to go through (work visa and residence permit), how much time do I actually have to leave the country without going to through any hassle ? I read 72 hours ? Is this true? 2. I also read that just to be in safe side, once the RP and WP gets canceled, I can changes from Z to L (Tourist visa) as a temporary option. I read somewhere this is only possible for 7 days - L visa??!! But some also mentioned that it is possible for regular 30 days - L visa ? What if I still need to extend this 30 days as well, possible ? 3. Lastly, what documents MUST I get from China - PSB / Sponser company /Banks / Medical insurance / Tax bureau / Hospitals etc before I leave the country. I do not have any plans to come back but just in case..if I need them abroad or for some reason coming back. Please share your valuable thoughts and suggestion. Thank you very much in advance!

My residence permit expires on July 31st. I want to work at a great summer time job in Beijing until the middle of August. Would it be possible for me to obtain a tourist visa while I am in Beijing?

New China Visa Allowing Foreign Spouse to WORK?
Magnus1977 posted a topic in The Middle Kingdom - 中国
Just got finished with an interview for a teaching position in China. My wife is Shanghainese. The recruiter (American) said something about a new VISA in China that allows Chinese citizen's spouse and children to get a visa to go to China AND WORK! Is this true? Have you heard this before? To go to China and live with my children and my wife, we could get a new visa that allows me to work and isn't dependent on me having a job...? Nice. not sure if it's true though... Please inform. -
Hey all, Greetings from China! Well.....I decided to move to China so we could be together until a decision is made in our case by USCIS. I was told by them that it could take anywhere from 6 months - a year or longer. I arrived here on September 9th. I tried teaching at 2 different schools after arriving here, but it didn't go well. Luckily, I did find a radio station in Beijing that employs foreigners (China Radio International). My B.A. degree is in Broadcastiing. I had a job interview Friday and was offered a position. Anyway...as some of you know, I am a felon. I have to apply for a Z visa in order to work for CRI. I have to submit a background check with the visa application. Obviously, my concern is that I will not get it because I am a felon. The offense happened almost 9 years ago and it was neither violent nor drug related. My wife found somewhere on the internet that if the applicant has a criminal record then they will not be issued a Z visa, but my research indicated that a criminal history does not necessarily disqualify someone from getting a Z visa and that it depends on the nature of the offense. Does anyone know if it is still possible for me to get the visa, or know of someone I can contact and ask them? Thanks William

I decided to change universities from the one where I have a z visa now to a new one. What do I have to do? Do I need to get my new school to sign for a z visa for next year? I married here last year to a Chinese national. Also I think I have to change my foreign expert/residence permit AND get a new health test. Is that all correct? Is there anything else? Everything I have expires in September.

I have my Alien Employment license of the people's republic of china in hand. WOOT. The supplement form for the visa asks for the license number, on the English language side there is no number listed. On the Chinese language side there is a number on the bottom 2013-XXXX. Anyone know if that is the number I need? I also have a Invitation letter of Duly Authorized Unit that also has a number on it. I am short on time and I do not want a delay because I typed the wrong number into the supplement visa form. If my timing is perfect I can get to shanghai, check out some apartments with the companies real estate agent, get my residency permit and still have time to get to Yuan before the baby is born. If my timing is off, well You all know how Chinese woman can be when you cannot do what you promised, LOL. :tomato: :tomato:

I am about to take a job that would have me work in China on an F visa. My wife and I are thinking about getting the DCF eventually. I have been reading on this forum that a Z visa is required for the petitioner, but has anyone done it on the F? It also sounds like the important component is the residence permit. If that is enough to show residency, can I get a residence permit while on the F visa?
