as ive explained being forced out of work for two years hasnt made things easy for me financially and my previous marriage only lasted one year before she died. we decided to get married early as a visitors visa seemed like a waste of time and money. if we all waited until the right time then most of us wouldnt get married. ive just spoken to my good lady wife and she has asked me not to get too stressed out about this as she will wait as long as it takes. as for the embassy in manila ive learned far more from here than they have been prepared to tell me. thanks all for your support
