I Am Married to a PRC National and a Permanent Resident Here So How Can We Live Together in Hong Kong?
Posted in Family Visas, Long Stay & PR, The Hong Kong Visa Geeza, Your Question Answered /
What impact does being a Hong Kong permanent resident have on being married to a PRC national presently resident on the Mainland?
My friend is a British Passport Holder who is a Permanent Resident in Hong Kong for over 20 years
He married a mainland Chinese girl in Hong Kong and they now have a baby who was born in Hong Kong and now a British Passport Holder.
In what way can the wife apply for a dependent visa?
The immigration rule says that mainland residents are not eligible to apply for this visa.
If my friend acquires Chinese Citizenship and gives up his British passport, can he then bring the wife to Hong Kong as a dependent?
If not, what other ways?
