About:Overstaying in China & Penalty

A friend is more than a year of overstay..

I have this friend, who is currently in China for work. She's been staying in Ch for more than a year now but she doesnt have the Work and Residence Permit because her employer refused to process them when she got China. She is only holding the entry visa. What is the best thing for her to do.. ?? What government agency is she gonna call first?

The best thing is to surrender to the local police department. For a year overstay there will be a mandatory 10,000 rmb fine and most likely some jail time. That sounds bad, but recently people who have been caught overstaying their visa have had to serve 3-6 months in jail plus pay the fine and then be deported. So surrender is by far the best option. There is no other remedy. You can't magically make the overstay disappear.
