I have been traveling all over China for the past 4 months. I realize that I have overstayed my 60 day visa for about 60 days. I just got into town this weekend and I surrendered myself into the local PSB. I am currently staying with a friend, who is Chinese and lives with his girlfriend. The local PSB said to go and report yourself to obtain a temporary residence permit. When I went to the local police station, they after finding that I have a overstayed my Visa, they say, "who are you staying with so that we can punish them." Being a good friend, I told my friend that I will not get their landlord involved, so I told them I don't know. Today I went to the Exit and Entry Bureau near the lama temple to perhaps skip temp res permit, they also told me that I will need some document from the local police station. I know that I have to pay the fine, but is there anything I can do to avoid getting my friends landlord involved. I told them that I don't have any place to go and that the local hostel won't take me in either, because of my overstayed visa. I can't get an exit visa because they keep asking me for a temp res permit. I'm stuck in a loop, what came first the chicken or the egg? I don't know what to do any more. any insight on this? I do plan to go to HK and apply for a new visa and reenter, and NEVER overstay again. but I just can't seem to get to that part. HELLLPPPP PLEEAASSSEE!!!!
