Hi. I'm a filipino citizen. My family will be migrating to CANADA. And the flight that we have booked has a layover in NEW YORK (JFK)for 4hours. Do we need to get a US TRANSIT VISA?

Mr.Norman replied:

you don't need a US transit visa for 4 hours stopover.

Mr.Adam replied:

yes, it is as same as you apply for Chinese visa in Philippines, you just need to provide one additional documentm, the H4 US visa and its copy, I think that it is easier to get a Chinese visa in US than in Phillipines.

Dear Sir/Madam,

My old passport is out of valid, and I have got a new passport, but my visa to china which is still valid is still on my old passport, can I use it? And is there anything else I should do?

Please advise, many thanks!

I AM A GERMAN PASSPORT HOLDER WITH A WORKING VISA FOR AUSTRALIA, WISHING TO TRAVEL TO CHINA IN MID MAY - IS IT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO OBTAIN A VISA FOR CHINA FROM ONE OF THE CONSULATES IN AUSTRALIA (OR POSSIBLY NEW ZEALAND, AS I MAY BE TRAVELLING HERE IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS)??
THANKS :)

Mr.Mac replied:

yes, you can obtain a China visa from one Chinese consulate in Australia which is near to you because you hold Australian work visa which permits you stay in Australia for a long time. If you apply for Chinese visa in New Zealand, you maybe can't get a Chinese visa because you just a temporary visitors to New Zealand. Please bear in mind that single entry tourist visa is only valid for 3 months, please don't apply for it too early.
