China Travel Permit Delays

[rani]

On this dreaded call, do they just tell that card pickup date is delayed? or give any extra information? or allow us to ask anything?

Has anyone followed up with them via call? My pickup due date is next Monday. Keeping fingers crossed

No information. Just wait till the next call.

I wouldn't even know if they'd called. I don't answer calls unless it's family/a known work number

Not even when you know there might be a call from unknown number regarding your MTP application? Well, if you prefer to shoot yourself in the foot...

UK Citizen, so hopefully I get mine. But yeah, I hope they leave a voicemail if they do call. Otherwise I'll have to find out in person next month

Except 5-20 min after Mark6 drawings?

Do they call you if you win? I only buy old school paper tickets

As an Indian passport holder with Permanent Residency in Hong Kong, I received a communication over 1.5 weeks ago, indicating a delay in processing without providing details, only a commitment to contact me upon completion. Subsequently, I have been patiently awaiting further updates.

Hong Kong boasts a population exceeding 7 million, with a majority being Chinese residents. Notably, Chinese nationals typically acquire Mainland travel permits within a span of 5-10 calendar days. Furthermore, travel visas are issued within 5 working days. Therefore, the delay in my case does not seem to be attributable to the sheer volume of applications.

Hope I get my card soon

Got to know about a friend who has been waiting for more than 2 weeks. Received a call and then nothing since then.

so, nothing can be said on the duration of the delay. It's all too unclear.
