Thank you, reading your post makes me feel better about doing visa work here in the UK – reminding me that government inefficiency is a relatively small issue!

Interesting. I hadn’t heard anything yet here in HK. We just applied for visas for our family last week and were granted one-week multiple-entry visas, no problem. However, we are not business people, nor are we going to Beijing, so maybe that makes a difference . . . .

I was a bit worried when I read your post, but I am happy to report I was granted a (single-entry) F visa today in Canada.
I specifically said I wanted to enter China in May (for 30 days), which could have spread into early June.
I showed my last three multiple-entry one-year F visas, and it seemed sufficient.
I didn’t have an invitation letter to push for the multiple-entry, but I will try that after October 1!
Whew!

“It’s amazing how the CCP thinks everything revolves around it. Who cares if its their 60th anniversary? Not even most Chinese people care.”

This year is the CCP’s 88th anniversary, in fact. A very auspicious number.

Hey Ed – I wondered about that after I posted my comment. I made a reference to that early June event in a parenthetical at the end of the post, though perhaps the reference was a bit too vague. Anyway, yes, I agree. That’s the issue here.
