Q: Can I leave the country without paying rent?

Not saying I WILL do this...but seeing as how I hate my landlord very, very much...what would you say the risks are? Chances of getting caught at the airport? Am I out of trouble once outside of China?

The BIG QUESTION is how to manage that, since to my knowledge in China you must pay rent in advance (many landlords require from 3 to 6 months rent, plus deposit). So, how will you manage to live on a flat and do not pay enough rent to at least recover your deposit?. I will be waiting for your reply. A local acquaintance rented an apartment for 3500 Rmb per month. After a couple of years, decided to ask for a reduction in rent to 2500 Rmb per month. Landlord refused to accept, so fellow told landlord he was moving out breaking contract. landlord refused to return money of rent paid in advance, nor the deposit money, so tenat went a bit crazy and trashed apartment before moving out. Issue was settle out of Court months later with tenant renouncing to his claim for rent money and deposit money returned to him.

I'm pretty sure you paid a deposit and I'm wondering about your entire mind set on why such a question would be asked

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
