Well I remember the when I applied for the residence (wife) visa before it came in options of it had 2 year option and 5 year option. I only went for the 2 year as for some quirky reason I just assumed more likely to get at the time. I think but not 100% on this that it's pretty new on the visas available, as in it was made available at roughly the time I was applying previously.
Just wanted to know if people have been fine getting a five year residence permit in China so far, not really heard much about people having them. My Two year one I have will expire in the summer and was thinking to try the Five year visa this time rather than Two year, but is it harder to get?
Surely the qualifying should just work out the same but you never know lol. So if anyone or anyone you know have experience with this be thankful to hear about it :o)
Bit inquisitive maybe but why does one get a 10 year multiple entry visa? Do you do these type of runs every two months then? Obviously yes but a pain in the a**e for sure. Surely easier to find someone help you with the 2 year/5 year one (not me, just saying lol).
Anyway no reason walking into Vietnam and back will have any problems, visa good for another 60 day lol
Me being English, I have to say I do love a good French bashing every now and then lol.
@tonyaod Your description was nowhere near what I experience every year with my Chinese family. Where do you get that from, is it your own experience with family or just a load of complaints stuffed together to make description.
No results found.
Been here several times lately and every time I've enjoyed my meal. Don't know why some others have said it was pricey, the price has always seemed fair to me :)

Life in Kunming: Studying Chinese in the Spring City
Posted byIt get's easier upon learning the way's of doing things, kind of becoming an automation on the regular things.
I've been here 4 and a half years learning a little all the time but the language never perfectly sticks, just slowly grows. It's a tough challenge especially when like JanJal my local spouse contributes quite a lot when I have trouble. It's something I think is always worth keeping up with if you're going to stay for any long length of time.

Posted byWas there in passing Monday and had dinner in the old town. I would've gone to this area as well had I known, for it's historical importance alone and to show some respect for the fallen of war.
