Single Parent China Visa!

[Justhefacts]

Please read the visa requirements for China if you are planning on working at a school there. Single parents travelling to China with children under 18 are required to have a copy of the father's/mother's passport and the other parent must sign the visa application. Be careful. Chinese authorities are also stopping people from leaving at the airport. Reason and resolution are not known.
