Q: Change company, what's the procedure to renew my work permit ?

I just started a job in a new company (still in the same city) and I was wondering how to renew my current work permit in order to expand my resident permit.

The company that sponsored my Z visa gave me my release letter (离职证明) and now I'd like to know the different steps to get a new work permit : what documents are required ? how long does it take ?

My current work permit ends on August 15th and my resident permit on September 13th.

Thanks for your advices

If you got the release letter and cancellation of your FEC. Then you're free and all you need now is to choose a new company or school to work for. Nothing else is required, but you might need your original diploma, not a copy. So Choose your next job wisely.

As he's already found the new job/company all he needs to be concerned with is the new company getting the paperwork processed to transfer his work permit & RP. He shouldn't have to do anything really.

Q: Can a Z visa holder do graduate studies in China while working?

A: Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside

A:Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
