i would think twice about going to live in the phils if you don't have a lot of savings, what will you live off?, you will struggle to find work, and as some have found on here who have gone to the live in the phils, its not took them long to run out of money and then having to try and find money to get back to the UK..Originally Posted by rob legend
i would go with the spouse visa, get your wife here, so both of you can start saving, and then go and live in the phils
Got to agree with Joe. unless you have a good income stream and a job independent of the Phils I would not consider living there. It might appear cheap to live there but you will find it is not that cheap.
Live your life for a reason and don't worry be happy
if you don't know where you are going then any road will do!!
Your biggest problem with a visitor visa is getting the ECO to believe that your wife will leave the UK at the end of the few weeks.
Totally agree, it might be a struggle to live here in the UK, but if you live here for 3 years then your wife can apply for British citizenship. Once she has that little red book you can go to the Philippines knowing that as long as you can get back to the UK border they will let you in. Unlke others who have gone to the Philippines and are now in the difficult position that they would like to come back to the UK but they may not be able to ge a visa for their wife to enter the UK.i would think twice about going to live in the phils if you don't have a lot of savings, what will you live off?, you will struggle to find work, and as some have found on here who have gone to the live in the phils, its not took them long to run out of money and then having to try and find money to get back to the UK..

I am a serious person , Learned about filipino cultures etc, I have a good friend in Gina and Pete who i sat in cafe (Bacolod) and chatted, wished I had been more intentive.. but we was starngers at time, My advantage was that my wife was working in ABS-CBN News-Patrol etc and productions on one of their smaller stations but the crew became my family.. not one would i not protect if the circumstances aroused... Filipinos I admire you for the dedication to friendship ans hospitality you always show... I am definately your Kaibigan
