getting a new z-visa, locationearliest i can get

Question

Two questions.  1.  Which embassy or Consulate should I apply at in America?  I have lived in China for three and a half years, before this, I was a resident of Oregon.  While in there, I used my mother's address in Oregon until she returned to our birth state, Montana.  Can I still use Oregon, and apply through San Francisco.  Do I use Montana, and apply through DC, or would it be some other place... Or does it really matter?2.My current z type expires on April 3rd.  My current employer will send it in to be canceled the day of, or after.  What is the earliest I can apply for a new working type?  I don't need confirmation that it has been canceled before I apply for a new one do I?  Can I apply before, the day of, or the business day after or must I wait till I receive confirmation?  Does it matter?

Hello, Lucas!1. You should submit the application to the consulate which has jurisdiction over your residence area, so I think it’s more appropriate for you do the application in the embassy in Washington DC.2. No, you don’t need to confirm the previous Z type has been cancelled before you reapply for the Z type. You know, as long as you get the new Z type, the former one will be invalid automatically. Therefore, you can go about the reapplication now.
