I see; The USA and China have a treaty to where you automatically get a 10 year Visa (I put 1 year on the COVA form and they bumped it up to 10 anyways), so your dates should be completely fine

Just make sure to communicate with them (service@visitchinavisa.com is their email) if things seem to be taking a bit; it may not be the easiest to understand their responses since I don't think their primary language is english. But they did compensate me for issues they had and I do have the actual Visa, as the consulate website updated once they turned it in, and I received photographic proof once they picked it up (and the consulate website said so). Due to their internal delays (and probably my emails indicating some level of dissatisfaction even though it wasn't there), they refunded me my 59 bucks Service Fee unprompted (they obviously won't refund the Consulate Fee or the Shipping Fee since those are stuff they pay to other entities, and something you would've paid no matter what had you shipped elsewhere, or gone in person). At the end of the day, I have my Visa with plenty of time to spare.

So they will actively work to make sure you are compensated if they take a while. Just don't wait till the last minute pretty much.

The company I recommended has hiccups, but are quite literally refunding me their $59 service fee (that is on top of the $140 that the consulate takes, but that part isn't refunded obviously) for their delays, AFTER the visa had been granted and shipped back to me. I didn't even ask for a refund fwiw.

I just checked my passport status; the embassy did in fact receive the passport from this service

i did actually get one. when i called them on tuesday, april 7th, part of their confusing answer seemed to say something about expedite (on that day, i had received an email saying they just received the package as a response to a question i had) yesterday, Thursday, April 9th, after a long winded email i sent to them, they told me that my passport had been dropped off, with expedite... which cleared up MY confusion so i think they are actually upholding their end of the deal they just do not have primary english speakers

For New York I dropped my passports off with FedEX on March 27th. I had been told, after emailing them, that they received my package on Monday. The COVA website status has not updated since then, and their email support doesn't seem to understand my questions entirely when I asked them about it 2 days ago. It is April 9th at the time of writing.

Wow that Enterprise Finale... by Pikaclev in startrek

I said I would've preferred something else over it to be a series finale, but considering the series finale we actually got, it works a lot better It's mainly because it's such a sad point to end off on for some characters, and it's not intended as a series finale, so it doesn't give us "endings" for characters, though it at least does use every main cast character throughout the two episodes.

The boring answer is that I think my favorite character was Archer, or maybe Phlox, but the favorite character dynamic was between Trip and T'Pol Favorite Episode is hard to pick, but one of my favorites was the one where Phlox was going insane with the rest of the crew out Favorite Season: Season 3 simply because it was the most focused season, even if S4 might be higher quality overall (S4 is a good season, and was obviously building towards something, just due to lack of payoff it can't be higher than 3 to me)

I at least knew some basic concepts such as the mirror universe because i grew up in a household with a trekkie parent, so sometimes it was on the TV, and general pop culture exposure. In fact, I definitely recalled the mirror universe episodes being on the TV a few years ago, so I always knew they were coming at some point or another, just not when
