In China on a working visa. I Need to get criminal record check authenticated

I have a working visa and currently am in China. It expires January 2021. I need to get my criminal record check authenticated. I am wondering if I need to get an agent to do this for me and what is the best/ most affordable agent. My criminal record check is from New Brunswick.
Are they open to authenticating now?

Thanks.

If you don't plan to leave China, you can ask an agent to do this for you, but I have no idea which agent is the most recommended.

Visit to Kailash Manasarovar

I am a Canadian citizen of Indian origin, living in Quebec city. I am planning a trip to the holy place of Kailash Manasarovar (near Darchen) in end of July. I will be doing the package tour with the agency Trips to Temples, which will start from Kathmandu and go to Kailash via Lhasa. All the people on this trip are from India with an Indian passport. However, I was told that as a Canadian citizen, my visa and permits will have to be done separately and take more time. Can I get all my permits for this trip done from Canada? Please advice.

Dear, you can get the visa from Canada, but your Tibet Travel Permit can't be done from Canada.

I live near Plattsburgh NY, can I apply for a Visa for China in Montreal instead of going to NYC?

Montreal is 60 miles from my home, New York City is 300 miles.
Is it possible for a New York Resident to apply for a visa at the Chinese Consulate in Montreal?
Thank you
