Hello all, this to inform all that I along with my daughter ( whom I am sponsoring) applied for China L visa on 6th October 26 and today we got the online approval..we will now be preparing our documents for submission.
Till now everything was super smooth and we got our approvals in the first go itself.
So let’s not make noise about this unnecessarily. If your documents are correct then there is nothing to worry about
This is my personal experience from Delhi centre.
If anyone needs any assistance I will be happy to help
Regards

Does everyone get a single-entry X2 visa, or can the university request one additional entry? Has anyone received a second entry through their university before?

I’ve been trying to get a Q2 visa for past 8 years since becoming a U.S. citizen, it’s been unsuccessful every time. I was a Chinese citizen before that. The most recent one was in beginning of September, I called twice, they told me it’s processing and cannot give me a timeline. The last time when I applied was in 2024, it took them six months to tell me that I can’t get one. I have provided invitations from my parents, siblings and even cousins. Does anyone know any travel agency who can help in this case? Or is there any legal action that I can take to obtain a visa? I feel very desperate and depressed because I haven’t seen my whole family for a very long time.

Hi everyone,

Looking for recent experiences with the China Z Visa application via Gerry’s Islamabad centre (COVA online pre-review stage).

My application timeline:

First online submission: status unapproved, no reason provided at all.

Second submission: they asked me to modify travel/arrival-departure dates (section 6.1) according to my Work Permit Notice (WPN). I corrected all itinerary fields fully as instructed.

After updating and resubmitting the second revised application, it got rejected again, without giving any explicit rejection reason.

My WPN has a QR code for instant verification. My Chinese employer HR confirmed they never received any verification call or message from the embassy.

I have a few questions for those who faced similar cases recently:

Has anyone here had this same sequence: first silent unapproval → then asked to fix travel dates → after fixing dates, rejected again with no reason? What was your actual issue, and what fix worked?

Are these online COVA pre-screen rejections saved in embassy records even though I have not submitted my passport physically?

I plan to request a stamped invitation letter from my employer and add the official company HR email to my next application form. Has this helped anyone in this situation?

I will visit Gerry Islamabad office with printed rejection records to submit an escalation request. Can Gerry staff share common rejection patterns they are seeing for recent Z visa applicants?

Any real recent experience or advice will be much appreciated.

Going home for new years, I'll be applying for the family visa, but not sure which visa he should apply for?
