I am in China Qingdao and I want to know how many times or how long i can renew my Q2?

So, I got my q2 visa. And although it is not her hometown here in Qingdao, I was able to get 6 months. I got it in September 2013. And it says Permitted to stay until 15 mar 2014. I just wanted to ask, Am I going to be able to renew it without having to leave? Is the renewed one going to be another 6 months? How long can I renew or how many times can I renew like this?

I think you should go to the local entry and exit management department or bureau for consultation. In Beijing, the applicants can extend Q2 without leaving. But I don't know if the same procedure is adopted in Qingdao. If you can do that, usually you gain the same period as your previous one and you can extend it for two times at most.

Yes, you can get another 6 months. If you spouse can prove that they have more money in their bank then you can get a longer visa. If you can't do it in Qingdao then go back top your spouses hometown and register your address the spouses family house or if your your spouse owns a house then use your spouse address and go to the PSB and they will extend your visa. IF I were you be smart and not lazy, walk into the PSB and ask them, but make sure you are going to the correct PSB, there are tons of PSB offices, but only one PSB office is for foreigners and extending visa's. Don't worry you will be fine, China isn't into kicking out family when they have the correct visa and money to support you in the spouses account.

in shenzhen q2 even you don't show any amount with your spouse account, as long the officer can determine that your marriage is more than 5 years the PSB in shenzhen don't ask any bank details or a house that should be owned by your chinese spouse , the rented house is fine, residence card of your spouse better if 10 years (shenzhen) , marriage contract,and id and 6 months is very easy to avail. But anyways every provinces and cties have its own rule and only PSB can determin which one is better but q2 can be renewed within china without leaving, same before when L spouse can be converted in Q2 without leaving china.That is base to my own experienced.

Hi I am married too and living in Shanghai . Well I got for 3 months first time Q2 with 0 entries and the officer said don't leave mainland at this period then they gave me again the same 3 months with 0 entries and next month I will get 2 years multiple entries :) But need to show 100,000 yuan your wife must show this amount not you. and 2 years one is very convenient you can go and come in to mainland until it is valid after it expires you can renew the same 2 years or 3 4 5 years all depends how much you have like for 5 years your wife must have 300,000 yuan . this is shanghai in your area as mentioned u must go to the exit entry bureau to confirm.
