Hi, if you have X1 type and residence permit in mainland China, your parents can try to apply for Chinese S type for mainland from the China embassy in your country. They need to prepare passport and the copy, passport-style photo, a completed application form, an invitation letter from you and copy of your passport and Chinese residence permit, as well as your birth certificate. Then, submit the application to the China embassy.
