Mijin Posted July 21, 2019 at 03:49 PM Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 at 03:49 PM I'm sure a very basic question, but I didn't see a past thread. Basically I want to quit my job, and get my HSK 5 and maybe HSK 6 while deciding next step. If it is necessary to get a study visa, then I will enroll at a school full time. But if not (my residence permit still has 8 months on it) I would just study on my own and just contact a school for assistance with sitting the exam. But the whole process is unclear to me, and once I quit I only have four weeks until I am in limbo. NB: My desire to quit and desire to take a study sabbatical are two separate things. I wouldn't quit a job I am happy in to do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChTTay Posted July 21, 2019 at 06:05 PM Report Share Posted July 21, 2019 at 06:05 PM Once you quit your job they’ll cancel your RP. You’d need to get an X visa of some sort but not sure about the details - can you transfer? Do you need to leave and come back? Etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can have a student visa, in general, you cannot work. Wish you luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mijin Posted July 22, 2019 at 02:01 PM Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 at 02:01 PM ok thanks for the responses I'm going through the process of getting a student visa. It is necessary to leave the country to apply for a visa. At the school where I enquired about this, they recommended going to Thailand or Malaysia over Hong Kong (the latter being very slow at processing applications) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
