Hi, I am planning on heading to the Los Angeles Chinese Consulate to apply for a passport/visa for my trip to Beijing, China this upcoming Dec. 8, 2009. I am a non-US Citizen but I am a US Permanent Resident greencard holder. How much is the fee for same day processing and also is there a place within the China Consulate in LA that can take my passport photos? If so, how much is the fee for that as well? So far these are all the items I have prepared: valid passport, permanent residency card,my Visa Application Form for the P.R. China (Q-2007), my roundtrip ticket information, copy of the chinese travel agency my friend used to book my ticket, an email from my friend regarding the booking of my ticket, my friend's information in China, drivers license and cash. Is there anything else I need other than the passport photo and the fees? Also, can you tell me how much the passport photo fee is if i take it in the China Consulate and how much is the fee for same-day processing for non-us citizen? Thanks.
