The real cost for local applicants
For Michigan applicants, the form is often not the exhausting part.
Physical documents still matter
After online review, printed forms, signatures, photos, the original passport, and supporting documents still face physical checks.
Collection is a second task
Submission and collection are usually separate handoffs; pick-up service removes the repeat trip.
Originals need a visible route
Purchased shipping uses tracking, while purchased CEV handoffs are recorded in the order timeline.
Standard service options
Michigan applicants can choose only the handoff they need.
Service fees are fixed and visible; shipping is separate unless the chosen plan already includes it, and official fees are shown separately.

Questions before ordering
Five things Michigan applicants should confirm first.
Which Chinese consular office usually handles Michigan applications?
Michigan applications are generally handled through the Chinese Consulate-General in Chicago. CEV references current jurisdiction information and confirms the final submission location from the new COVA online-review result.
Does CEV have a storefront in Michigan?
This page means CEV serves Michigan; it does not promise a local storefront. Materials are generally logged and routed through Chicago. The complete address and any appointment availability are confirmed in the order.
Can a Michigan applicant purchase only drop-off or only pick-up?
Yes. Drop-off and pick-up are priced separately per applicant, and they can also be selected together. Postage, official consular fees, and optional services are separate.
Can a Michigan applicant use Ground shipping for a passport?
Ground is not a supported CEV passport-shipping option. Use a tracked expedited service offered at checkout. The quote is calculated from the actual Michigan origin address, ship date, envelope, and speed.
Does purchasing CEV service guarantee visa approval?
No. CEV is an independent provider responsible for purchased handoff, drop-off, pick-up, and return coordination. Acceptance, processing time, and the visa decision remain with the responsible Chinese consular office.
