Q: Can you get a refund for unused train tickets?

I bought a train ticket a few days ago for December 5. Something has come up so I can no longer go on my trip. Is there any way that I can get a refund for this unused ticket?

Yes, you can indeed but you will have to go to the main train station in your city (not a local ticket agent) and you need to do so before the departure date as indicated on the ticket. Nonetheless, you will still loose about 15%, I believe as a handling charge.

Probably depends on the date of the ticket. There usually is a timeframe as to when you can get a refund for certain things. And a ticket will have a date and time on it. If it's a year old no luck in getting a refund. But if it has only been 24 hours or shall I say less than 24 hours you may have a chance! Nothing is guaranteed however!

Q: Can a Z visa holder do graduate studies in China while working?

A:Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
