I\'m stuck... ok, My situation is that I came here with an Business Passport which only valid for 2 year(comparing with 5 years valid of private Passport) which expired 2 year by now already. I\'m planning going back to China, but the consular told me that I couldn\'t go back with an expired one, according to him that only way I can go back is that I need to ask my company of origin who help me issue the passport to request the consular here to issue me a new private passport. To me this is basically mission impossible--since the company had already gone bankrupcy in China and even I found somebody can help me, it would be very time consuming matter. I feel that my government make my life difficult by having so many rules trying to control their own citizen\'s life (such as have so many different class of passport!). All I want now is \'going back to China" and according to Consular in LA, they are not willing to accept me--my own county!!\' Is there a way that I can bypass this situation? Can I go back with my expired passport? what would be the consiquence? If I can apply a brand new passport in China now by going through \'network\', can I use it going back to China? given the fact that the passport is blank without record of coming out of China first? What I can do to going back to china?
