Hi just would like to know as a couple retiring to the Philippines my wife philippino but here for years with british citizenship myself british which visa is the better bet.

Baliikbayan with me as the spouse allowed to stay foe one year, but seen it mentioned possible refusal of entry after some years might be a big issue , or the SRRV retirement visa for my wife with myself as the spouse, seems you pay a fee for both on this option is it worth it is it the way to go.

Also a general Tax question is it best to pay tax in the uk on our retirement pention, house rent or interest on money from sale of house here or in the Philippines ,seems you can chose which , but dont have to pay both countrys.

Only thing is still paying any income from investements and pention tax here unless you are here for 91 days every year and thats not easy to do and expensive we both loose the normal £6500 personal allowances here. any advice please.

Joe bloggs has been mentioned or any one please could help us learn whats the best Visa and tax option for a retiring to the Phillipines couple like Teresita and me , Regards Rodney.

I can understand your eagerness to find out, mate.

But, please, don't make several posts asking the same questions.

A couple of the guys on the forum, no doubt, will be able to help you with some of your queries, and it is matter to have to wait until they have the time to log on.
Some people have to work for a living.
I will try to merge this post with the other one.

In the meantime have a good read
