Emersyn’s passport expires in December 2014. Our China residence permit is due February 2014. Since passports are only good for 6 months prior to the expiration, Emersyn would get half a year visa. It is much easier to get a full year visa, therefore, another run to the American consultant for a new passport. This will be Emersyn’s last five year passport. The next passport will be a full 10-year passport.
