I'm American and my husband is Chinese. We first got our baby son (born June of this year) an American passport, and then got him an exit/entry permit from the Exit/Entry Bureau on Beijing Lu. The bureau there told us not to put our son on my husband's household registration. We had no problem leaving China for a short trip to the States in July, but the immigration people at the airport told us we had to get him a visa to re-enter China. Maybe they didn't know what they were talking about, but we went ahead and got him a visa. I think now that we got him a visa, he's pretty much straight American and so we won't try to get him a Chinese passport. Confused?! Me, too! Seems there is a bit of a loophole when the child is born in China and one parent is foreign and the other is Chinese.
Hi, I own a car but I want to hire an experienced driver for some long distance trips (up to a week and several hundred kilometers). What do you think would be a decent wage for a driver, not including the car? Thanks for any tips you're willing to share!
Hello, I want to take the English driver's license test in January in Kunming. Does anyone have a copy of the English test that they're willing to share with me?
Also, does anyone have any advice about how to go about this process in Kunming? I'll be on a six-month L visa (visiting relatives), will that be a problem? Do you get your license on that day, or do you have to wait two weeks? Thanks for any advice you can give!
