Hi, if you work in Macao, you can apply through the Commissioner's Office of the Ministry of China Foreign Affairs there, providing invitation letter from your friend and copies of her/his Chinese ID. ITR and bank statements are not required if he/she will sponsor your all travel and accommodation. Make sure this information is included in the letter.

Hi, I have to say that it depends on the officers because they have the final say to it. But if this is your first time to visit China, you should at least prepare a 6 months bank statement and explain or show proof that you are working overseas.
