| Hi Nathon, Which country are you from? Overstaying your visa in China for any reason is not wise. If you dropped out of school without informing them, go back to the school and try to work it out. If nothing can be settled, go back home and petition fro your girlfriend to come there and then marry her, then you both can return to China on an L visa as a married couple. A prospective employer has to change it to a Z visa to work in China, but they will give you annual extensions if you are married to a Chinese national. |

| In all probability, the college has done nothing to cancel your visa. You could ask them but that 'open a can of worms'. If you leave the country you should find out as they would raise the isssue with you! Then you can apply again with your past probably not affecting you. If you can get an internship with an organisation that will arrange your visa that would be best. If you can get this mostly arranged before you go, it should be much easier. You need not go home as you can apply from any country - but the sponsor must identify the country the forms will be taken to. Otherwise you might try to get a job teaching if you are a first language speaker of English, and get a Z visa which will be commuted into a residence permit while you work there. Or you might get an F visa...a grey area in some senses. If you don't have a sponsor agencies advertise that they can help you with this or other visa but of course there are fees. I am not sure from talking with people I have known, that you will benefit from marrying overseas rather than in China, though you will find the paperwork easier. But if you are married you can normally get annual 'extensions' to your visa, of whatever type you are eligible for. There is no such thing as an extension to a visa or changing a visa type, though these phrases are often used colloqially. You always apply for new visa, it always cancells any existing visa..

| Whew I trawled TCG for ages to find this. So there are two possibilities. I have no experience of applying for student (X) visas, but I previously had a business (F) visa. It was issued without leaving the mainland. So it appears the company is not telling porkies (lies). F Visa: Issued to an applicant who is invited to China for visit, research, lecture, business, scientific-technological and culture exchanges or short-term advanced studies or intern practice for a period of no more than six months. X Visa: Issued to an applicant who comes to China for the purpose of study, advanced studies or intern practice for a period over six months. |

| GUEST56232 | Hi...can anybody help me? I will be sent by my french company to work in china for a long term period. I am french, my wife and her kid (which are malaysian) will be with me in China. I understand that i will need a Z visa, but i heard that it's better to go there with a tourist visa, then change it to Z visa once we are there. Is that true? Since we are in france now, can we do all visas from here? And what kind of visa do my wife and her kid need? Thank you ... |

| Your company need to arrange all the visas for you. All you should do is provide photos and signature. Your wife and her child should get L-visa's for the purpose of visiting family, which should last the duration of your contract. |
