Tourist Visa Letter of Invitation

I plan to travel to China soon to marry my fiance of almost 2 years. Since we met my visa expired and I need a new one. I plan to use the L tourist visa to get there. Does anyone know if the Letter of Invitation signature from my Chinese fiancee needs to be the original when I send it to the consulate in for the visa or can she scan it to me and a submit a printed copy?

Also, should I say on the paper that I am her fiance and we plan to get married? My gut instinct tells me to say friend as I did the last time and say traveling.

I plan to travel to China soon to marry my fiance of almost 2 years. Since we met my visa expired and I need a new one. I plan to use the L tourist visa to get there. Does anyone know if the Letter of Invitation signature from my Chinese fiancee needs to be the original when I send it to the consulate in for the visa or can she scan it to me and a submit a printed copy? Good question. Inquire with the Houston PRC consulate.

Also, should I say on the paper that I am her fiance and we plan to get married? My gut instinct tells me to say friend as I did the last time and say traveling. Follow your gut feeling.

Have a good trip and enjoyable visit.

I found that scan, fax and copy are acceptable. Sometimes they ask for the original letter of invitation. I will have my baby scan and email it to me followed my snail mail just in case.

Thanks! I miss my baby so much, I have not been there since last October, we were saving for a wedding and honeymoon in the US and to build a house together. But this way, getting marred in China, her parents can be there. We will have a wedding party in the US once she makes it here. Two parties are better than 1! :dancing:

Also, should I say on the paper that I am her fiance and we plan to get married? My gut instinct tells me to say friend as I did the last time and say traveling.

If I were in your shoes, I would state exactly what I was going there to do (that's what my gut instinct would tell me). Your visa application would not be adversely affected by that.

However, it's your application and you have to submit in the manner you best see fit.

I know you had a heartbreak denial but your attitude is really positive,

and I have a gut feeling that your marriage will be a happy and successful one.

While you are in China, be sure to create lots of evidence (pictures, receipts, etc.),

and you might even consider helping her to apply for the right documents this time.

Best of luck!

The denial really stung like a wasp in my eye, but nothing can stop my baby and I, there is always another way! We really do love each other. We are very happy and have always been. When I get down, I just have to see her face in the video chat and all is well. :luv: And when we are together in real life, it is always heaven!

We should be married before the month is out. I'll be traveling to Beijing next week to get affidavit of marriageability then we are off to Zhengzhou, Henan for the marriage license followed by a wedding party in Pingdingshan, Henan. :dancing: Then we are off to a warmer place in South China for the honeymoon. :wub: We will also celebrate my birthday on December 16th together so that is a plus!

Life is great! :thumbs:

Busy day today. Obtained 3 newly certified copies of my divorce papers, full and proper judgements (did you know they expire after 30 days?), renewed my driver's license (will expire while I am in China) and submitted my application for the Chinese visa. Plus got a bunch of information and documents from the new lawyer. Moving right along! :thumbs: My boss ok'd me taking off a month to get married. :)

Busy day today. Obtained 3 newly certified copies of my divorce papers, full and proper judgements (did you know they expire after 30 days?), renewed my driver's license (will expire while I am in China) and submitted my application for the Chinese visa. Plus got a bunch of information and documents from the new lawyer. Moving right along! :thumbs: My boss ok'd me taking off a month to get married. :)

I hope you applied for the 10 year visa.

I applied for the 1 year visa the day before the news came out and got the 10 year visa since there is a 4 day processing time. :)

Congratulations on your marriage and hope the best for your visa journey.

My first visa request I also had to have my single able to marriage letter notarized and then have the secretary of state office in Chicago affirm the validity of the notary agent (who was my sister actually was nice to visit her at the same time) and have the Chinese consulate approve the secretary of states affirmation of the notary agent. It seems rather silly to march around office to office but I did not want to take any chances. So my first visa was very clear I was intending on marriage when I was in China

my second visa was very easy got the 2 year one. Now it is sooo cool to have the 10 year one. Wife took citizen oath NOV 25 so our USA visa journey has come to an end but still have to jump through the Chinese hoops for both of us. I am not planning a trip any time soon but she has not visited in so long I hope we can afford one this year soon.
