I have 2 questions,

#1: I am under 18 and my mother lives in china, but my parents are divorced and my legal guardian is my dad who lives in Canada, will I still be granted the family visit visa?

#2: If I want to apply for the residence permit, do I apply it along with my visa before I go back to China, or do I apply it after I enter China? Also, if I'm supposed to apply for both visa AND the residence permit, what type of visa am I supposed to apply for?

Thanks!
