[quote=GUEST07159,619331]Good Day I am hoping I can obtain some advice. My brother suffers from bipolar depressive disorder and is on serious medication. His depression is under control and he has been under the care of a psychiatrist for the past 10 years or so. His doctor even wrote him a recommendation saying that it is safe for him to travel and work abroad. He has recently obtained his TEFL as well as his Bachelors in Education and was contacted by a Chinese recruiter to come and work in Beijing. As he is awaiting for his TEFL to be stamped and certified the recruiter has suggested that he travels on a tourist visa and has provided him with a letter. However on the Chinese VISA application it asks whether he as a serious mental disorder. My question is, if he discloses the mental disorder 1. Is it likely that he will be declined a VISA? and 2. Should the VISA be approved how likely is it that he will be able to take perscription medication into the country (would be 6 months worth of medication)? 3. What is the likelyhood should he decide to stay in China for the long term of obtaining similar medication as we are unsure whether he will be able to obtain medical assistance with this. Thank you.[/quote]
