visa

[gingxrick]

Hi to all,
is it right in saying that if I go to the Phils to meet my wife,then take her on a trip to HK on entering back at manila with my wife I can get a 1 year visa as long as we can prove to them we are married, (ie) showing them our marriage certificate etc

Yes that appears to be correct, you can travel back in to country with your wife and avail yourself of the Balikbayan privilidge providing that you are travelling with your wife, your wife would need to tell the immigration officer that you are availaing yourself of this privilidge, when you show your passport and hers at same time, best of luck with that and let us know how that goes.

Yes, it seems that is the only requirement. I could be wrong though.

Thanks for the info so when I go to the Phils soon I hope I will try it out and let you all know,
