Out of security concerns, all Chinese Consulates across the United States have stopped accepting visa applications  by mail, making it extremely inconvenient  for visa applicants nationwide. Even for those who live within driving distance to the Chinese Embassy or Consulate, the two trips (drop-off and pick-up) to the consulate can be very time-consuming, intimidating, and frustrating. Driving in traffic, waiting in a long line for submitting the application and returning back to pick up the visa a few days later is the ultimate nightmare for Chinese visa applicants. This whole drop-off and pick-up process can easily take two half days off someone's busy schedule. It is absolutely not cost-effective and worthwhile to go to the Chinese consulate to get the visa in person.  By using our service for a small service fee, all the hassles and frustrations can be eliminated. We are only 15 minutes away from the Chinese Consulate in Los Angeles, and all the applications we process are treated with utmost responsibility and urgency.
