独一无二, 无尽的爱

I just heard from a Mauritian who’s currently in HK that it’s no longer possible for Mauritians to get an F-visa through visa agents there. That’s really bad news. Like many people here in China, we are here on an F visa (business visa). This does not allow us to work officially, but many people prefer this as it’s 6mths (instead of a max of 3mths for L-tourist visa). Furthermore, some people do work with the F visa which is more grey in that area than an L visa.

Anyway, even though I’ve never worked in China (whatever visa I had), I was planning on continuing this business of making a short trip to HK to extend my visa every 6mths and have peace of mind for that period. If it’s L visa, we’re not going to have more than 1mth visa. I won’t be able to stay in China if that’s the case.

I do hope that my job offer gets formally approved and completed soon. I’ll be in deep trouble if my visa expires beforehand. I will probably end up with the unattractive option of a fast marriage to a local to be able to stay here otherwise.
