I'm getting a little freaked now. I am trying to decipher the Chinese Visa page but it looks like I can get a multiple entry visa good for six months? Am I reading this correctly.

I live near NYC and go in in person usually but I hate the two trips into the city for drop off and pick up. What determines same day turnaround?
