Q: How long does Foreign Expert Bureau take?

I am going to begin a new teaching job in Hangzhou.

 

My Residence Permit will expire June 14.

 

My current employer will give me my cancellation letter and release letter on May 31st at latest.

 

Will this give me enough time with the Foreign Expert Bureau to make it to the PSB by 

June 14th? Worried about the time and the current employer are not budging much on May31st.

 

Will this give me enough time?

 

Thank you.

When you're renewing an RP as long as you have it submitted and in the system you're ok.

 

I'd assume it's the same in your situation.

What is “the system”? I know the employer can apply online at the Foreign Expert Bureau but three need to approve the application before the expiration to go to the PSB. Correct? Just seeing if I have enough time.

Stiggs:

By system I mean while it's being processsed, and usually if your old RP expires while the new one is being processed it's ok, doesn't make you illegal or anything.

 

Questions: Is your new employer legally able to hire you? What has your new employer told you regarding the new RP? If they do this a lot, as they would if they have foreign teachers then they'll have a good idea of what's involved and should be able to answer any questions you have.

My question is two weeks enoughbtine from the submission of my application until being able to go to the PSB. I know I have until the last day of the Residence Permit to go to the PSB. My question is how long does the Foreign Expert Bureau take to Ok my application.

 

My asshole agency won’t allow my school to extend my Residence Permit to extend my time two weeks. They stated they are in the process of canceling my work permit. they say.  This only gives me about eight working days for the Labor Bureau to price ss my application.

 

This is my worry.

 

Is this enough time?

philbravery:

Sorry to State the obvious but, have you talked to the Labor bureau directly about this?

Stiggs:

I don't know how long it takes but again, talk to your new school about this.

 

They're the ones sponsoring you and getting you the new RP, they should probably be working on that now in fact so it's a smooth transition.

 

That's how it worked for me in the past when I changed schools. The new school talked to the PSB when we agreed I was going to work there, they told me what I needed to do and get from the old school and they were working on the new RP before I even finished my old job.

TPP:

When you submit your paperwork you are issued a piece of paper to use in place of your passport and with the date for collection. The length of time doesn't matter.

Answer of the DayMORE >>
A: In my personal experience, teaching certificates have varied in releva
A:In my personal experience, teaching certificates have varied in relevance depending on the context and location. Here's a breakdown of each aspect:a) Getting the teaching job: Teaching certificates can certainly enhance your chances of securing a teaching position, especially in formal educational settings such as schools and language institutions. Many employers prefer candidates who have undergone specific training in pedagogy and instructional techniques, which these certificates often provide. However, other factors such as experience, references, and the demand for teachers in a particular area also play significant roles in the hiring process.b) Getting a higher salary than your uncertified competitors: In some cases, holding a teaching certificate can indeed lead to a higher salary compared to uncertified competitors. Many educational institutions have structured salary scales that take into account factors such as level of education, years of experience, and additional certifications. Holding a teaching certificate may place you in a higher salary bracket or make you eligible for certain salary incentives or bonuses. However, this can vary widely depending on the specific policies of the institution or organization.c) Getting promotions: Teaching certificates can be beneficial for career advancement and securing promotions within the field of education. They demonstrate a commitment to professional development and mastery of teaching skills, which are qualities that many employers value when considering candidates for leadership positions or administrative roles. Additionally, some promotions may require specific certifications or qualifications, making holding a teaching certificate essential for advancement in certain cases.Regarding which certificate yields better results, it largely depends on the specific requirements of the job market and the educational context in which you intend to work. For example:A Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) is often highly regarded in formal school settings and can be advantageous for those seeking positions in primary or secondary education.Montessori certification is valuable for individuals interested in working in Montessori schools or implementing Montessori principles in their teaching approach.A Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certificate is particularly relevant for those seeking to teach English to non-native speakers in international contexts or language schools.Ultimately, the best certificate for you will depend on your career goals, the specific requirements of the positions you're interested in, and the preferences of potential employers in your target job market. It's essential to research the requirements and preferences of employers in your desired field and tailor your qualifications accordingly. -- ruqaiya761
