Jonathan, if you want to work in China, you have to get a Z type and then convert the Z type into a resudence permit. The Z type is not related to your marriage, so you can start to find a job and deal with the application for Z type right now.

im only 23 so i could find a job and once hired get the Z type right?

Roberta · Answer

Jonathan, after you find a job, you should first ask your boss to help you to get a work permit as well as an invitation letter from duly authorized unit. After that, you can apply for the Z type.
