Hello, My name is Nick and I bought a one-way ticket to Shanghai leaving November 11th. The reason I bought it one-way is because I will be visiting my son (he's half Chinese) who will be turning 19 on November 15th and, while there, I plan on working...probably as an English teacher but I have no definite job yet. And I figure that if I don't know exactly WHEN I will be coming back to the U.S.A. why buy a round-trip ticket. Right? Can I enter China without a round-trip ticket? I don't have my VISA yet because I just sent for it a week ago but will the Chinese Embassy in Washington, D.C. allow me to get a VISA with only a one-way ticket? If not, is there any alternative method for what I'm trying to do? I appreciate any response. Sincerely, Nicholas Covacevich
