Question

I found another job and we are on the procedure to change my work permit from my old company to the new company. 1) what are the possibilities that this change is not approved by the government? (is the first time I change job)2) In order to get a new work permit I had to cancel the old one, but Is my residence permit cancelled too? 3) How much time I can stay in China if my residence permit is still valid but my work permit is not valid anymore? 4) Should I be worried about something?

Carl · Answer

1) The possibility is half to half.2) Your residence permit is not to be cancelled, but you should renew it.3) If your employer does not tell the exit and entry administration to cancel your residence permit, you can stay until your residence permit expires.4) If you can't change your work permit successfully, you may need to leave China.
