Q: im going to renew my visa at the PSB soon. What should I tell them?

Bearing in mind I already renewed it once in foshan. They gave me a 3 month one .I told them then I was travelling around more with some friends and I'm still a student.

 

Now my visa runs out beginning next month. What should I tell them? better to say the same again? Or its because I want to stay longer with my girlfriend? which is true.

 

Which one is best to increase my chances of getting a longer duration? I don't know if they can actually decline the application....

You  will not get a longer duration and are lucky you got 3 months the first time. If you have no ties here you should either tell them you're writing a book about China's beauty or be prepared to come up with something, might want to use an agency

Normally they only give you 30 day extensions, to stay longer get a job, enroll in a university and get a student visa or use a agency and get a business visa.

Marry your GF and apply for spousal visa, I got mine and paid 700rmb for 1 year duration residence permit!

 

BUT only do this if you truly love her and want to spend the rest of your life in China and with her!

The most number of visa extensions any PSB will grant you is 2, and normally for 30 days each.  So, if you already had one, and for 90 days, you are a lucky one.  what you will face is either another extension if you are still enrolled and a real student, or 10 days to leave China, get a new visa, and return.

A:That is a typical Chinese style blackmail! I wouldn't worry for the WP application expiration at all!WP application doesn't expire. It is either approved or rejected and that is known fairly fast, 2-weeks time the longest. I'd find another employer, Z visa sponsor ASAP, sign new contract and start with WP application all over again. You might also try and find out at which office your employer applied for WP and speak to them (.gov) in person. They have at least one person there, who understands and speaks English. I'd say, your employer most likely never applied for anything. Employers in China must hold an authorization certificate to hire foreigners. If an employer doesn't have such an authorization, it cannot sponsor foreigner for a Working permit and Z visa.Most language schools in China don't have such an authorization, because it's a costly thing to obtain for one ...You could also ask your employer to show you a foreign hire authorization certificate. It's an A4 format paper with text in Mandarin and several red-ish ink stamps.I've always wanted to see an employer's foreign hire authorization before I've inked the new contract. That prevented many shady deals employers in China were/are playing. See this: https://english.www.gov.cn/services/liveandworkinchina There are two web links on the bottom. Send them a message and find out, if that Chinese state org. can advise and help you. Good luck! -- icnif77
