can you get an f visa for more than 3 months?

Question

HiI posted this the other day but cannot find it so apologies if you have already answered it.My partner is going to Kunming to study kung fu. He has an invitation from the school. He would like to stay for 3 months then spend maybe 2 weeks travelling around China. Is it possible to get an F type for longer than 3 months? Also, is it actually 3 months or 90 days that they are normally valid? Many thanks

Hi, Sarah. As your partner is going to study in China, I think he should apply for an X2 type rather than the F type. If he can get the X2 type, he will stay in China for less than 180 days.
