[quote=VOODOOCHILD,404591]Hi all!

I recently accepted a teaching job in Beijing. My employer said they would take care of work permit and work visa permit and send them to me, so I can get the visa from my embassy here. So I sent them all the relevant scanned documents (including my British passport - also have a Greek one which I didn't sent). 15-20 days later my employer replied that the visa was refused at the electronic screening step, that they did not tell him the reason, and that I have no option to appeal the decision. During those 15-20 days, I was trying to get through to the employer for different reasons, but communication was very bad, not answering emails, saying he was too busy to talk on the phone etc. This behavior made me wonder if he's saying the truth about the visa.

From the information given, does this refusal sound normal to you? (have no illness and the only thing that might be on my British criminal record, was a 1 year driving ban which ended a year ago - could this be reason for refusal?)

If it is a scam, any ideas why my documents would be useful to the employer?

If it was actually rejected, does this rejection make it pointless to apply for jobs in other cities (e.g. Tianjin, Shanghai)?

Any way possible to find out if the documents were actually submitted, and if yes, what was the reason for the refusal? I've tried the british and greek embassies but they say they have no such info on file.

Sorry about the long post, but had based everything on this job, and now I'm left in the dark with no income. Any help possible is appreciated.

Thanks!
