[quote=GENSUKI,527878]My sister wants to travel with me to China for vacation. This is her first time to China. She was born in Taishan, China and came to US as a toddler in 1951 and has a travel affidavit with her name as Leu Heung Chen. Leu Heung is her real given name, but Chen is her paper son name. Our father came over as a paper son. Once school began, she used Louise Chen, as Louise was easier to pronounce than Leu Heung. In 1971, she got an attorney’s letter explaining her name transitioning to Louise Leu Heung Chen. She needed this letter in order to obtain a government job, which required citizenship. In 1995, she became a naturalized citizen. Our mother urged her to insert our real surname (Wong) into her name. So her naturalized name became Louise Leu Heung Wong Chen. She got her first passport under this name. What do you think her chances are of getting a visa? She doesn’t want to book flights until she has one. She is working with a visa agency. [/quote]
