Visa application questions
My 18-year old daughter will visit this summer; she will visit friends in Chengdu for 1 week; attend a Chinese language school for 2 weeks in Kunming; and then travel to Taipei for one week (total travel time = approx. 28 days). My daughter was adopted from China when she was 5 months old; she was given a Chinese name which we changed upon her adoption.
I am preparing her application and have some questions:
question 1.3 - Do I have to somehow write down my daughter's original Chinese name in characters?
Question 1.4 - Do I put her Chinese name here?
Question 1.5 - Does anything go here?
Question 2.4 - Does this mean the total number of days she intends to be over there, or the longest single stay at any one of her destinations (which would the language school in Kunming)?
Questions 2.8 and 2.9 - I assume this would be the language school, or would this be her friends, or both, or neither?
2. I note that we need to send an "invitation letter issued by a tourism unit" - I assume this would be the language school for part of my daughter's trip, but does she need anything from her friends? Visiting them will take up about half of her trip. And we will have no hotel reservations to send for this portion of her trip - will that be a problem?
3. We can send copies of her plane reservations roundtrip; however, since she will be stopping in Taipei on the way home, do we need to provide proof of her airfare from Kunming to Taipei and be done with it, and we should provide proof of flight from Taipei to the U.S. also?
Thank you so much for any assistance!
