trying to bring my gf to UK

[joebloggs]

Bear in mind that it's a visit visa which is valid for 5 years, but you can only stay for up to 180 days in any one visit. Which basically means you could spend 6 months here in the UK, but then you should return home for 6 months.

I'd personally be surprised if a 5 year visit visa was issued to a single Filipina with a British boyfriend, but I guess it's worth a try.

yes, i would be surprised if you got a 5yr visit visa, you might have been lucky getting your first one, more chance of getting a 5yr one if its for a family member .

but like darren said , it's worth a try

That's why i'm very interested to know the outcome.

Goodluck!
