Hi I am John from North East England.
Marrying next month in The Philippines.
Wanted to make contact with others who have filipino partners.
Anyone in the The North East of Engand.
Also once married does anyone know how long it is likely to take for my wife to get a visa ? I am a full British citizen with a home and job and can support both of us, any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John.:)

hi good luck with your lady. i can't help with visa rules, i found them a bit daunting and never tried applying yet. was thinking about a visit visa first, but now my relationship went tits up so looks like that idea is out the window. I was told if you are married getting a visa is a piece of ****. 2 to 3 weeks a flipina told me, and you don't even need such good qualifications, but i don't know from my own experience. sori i can't be more help. best of british to u and ur fiancee

Welcome and best wishes and congratulations in advance to both of you. Well, as far as my experienced 5 years ago I waited for 3 months for my interview and 2 weeks for my visa and my hubby had a previous marriage too. Good luck
