Best Answer
You can also send it back to an agent in the US, such as US-China Chamber of Commerce to do the visa as long as your passport shows that you are not inside China, i.e., exit stamps.
Using a reliable agent will eliminate a lot of uncertainties, and you do not need to take days off. Also, in theory, you are supposed to get the visa from a Consulate in the country which you come from though US citizens do get visas outside the US. However, you need to take the shipping cost into consideration.
This could cost between US$60 and US$100.
