DODGER is right. No law against marrying a pregnant woman in China. Though u have to check as most big cities hospital will ask for marriage certificate before they let couple deliver the baby. Apparently, the country tries to prevent and control unmarried pregnancy.

GUESTELLA PAGEP, you 'd better inquire the immigration officials in US, your hometown for the detail requirements, not here in China. If they is going to list you with them, I mean, the requirements she must obtain from China , you can get them ready before leaving. Best wishes.

GUESTCOLIN Hi there!
I met a nice Chinese lady in Chengdu last February & intend to go there again. She says she is in love with me & it all looks OK. I was a bit worried when she asked for a consdierable amount of money for her daughter`s education but has since stated he aunt will now do that. I live in London & get by financially. Has anybody got any advice about Visas, legal requirements etc.? It`s a big step & wondered if anyone can help?

GUESTBAUL If you want to apply Chinese visa, you can use the Chinese Visa Appliation Service Center in London, it is very convenient. An one entry Tourist Visa is enough. here are the requiorements:

1. Original passport remaining to be valid for at least 6 months with a blank visa pages.

2. One completed and truly filled Visa Application Form of Peoples Republic of China with a recently-taken passport photo; if the applicant has a Chinese name, the Chinese name should be filled in.

The processing time is about 4 working days if you make an appointment online beforehand and prepare all needed documents.

You are entitled to apply an tourist visa first, and exchange it to a longer stay resident visa valid for 1 or 2 years. If both of you live in China for 5 years and make sure not less than 9 months a year there, you can apply for a permanent resident permit. Rule is rule, but it is not surely you can get it anyway.
