I checked the Chinese Embassy in Washington DC webpage. It has not been posted the updated testing requirements yet. Keep fingers crossed. |

It seems that mychinavisa does not understand the difference between Q1 and Q2 visas. It simply says Family Visit Visa and requires the proof of Kingship

The DC embassy seems fairly flexible with Q2 visas, but I've heard that the San Francisco consulate is applying the Q1 kinship rules to Q2. |

Another slightly cheaper one:

Is it true the Houston embassy is no longer open? I got a 10 year visa from there back in 2017. I assume this is now null and void?

The Houston consulate is closed, and your visa probably is suspended. These two points are not related.
However, his visa might be L visa. |

The US forced them to close their consulate? I assumed they made that decision on their own because their staff didn't have anything to do.

Per a notice posted outside the Chinese consulate in San Francisco this morning, unexpired 10-year visas are valid for travel again starting Wednesday March 15. They'll start issuing new L (tourist) visas as well.

This is true.
My friend is at SFO Consulate NOW. He said the consular officials told him that old, still valid 10 year visas will be reinstated on March 15. |
I imagine the SF consular officers put this notice up ASAP to get some relief from the long lines (and probably phone calls) over the past few months.
