We both need visa!!!!!help..........pls......

[rutchzzz143]

My fiancee is a British citizen (Graham Smith) he is intended to leave in the UK starting this end of June and stay here in Phil for about 3 months so in regards to this situation as passport holder he only given a 20 days maximum for holidays so while its over 20 days thats why he need a visa to stay in the Phil for the period of time stated................so foremost........

What things he needs to required to get a visa in the UK to come and stay in Phil? and expected how many days will be the visa issued to get it and proceed for the coming to Phil........so expected June-middle of September he will stay in Phil b4r our wedding day by Sept. 9,2009..................

So up next have a problems in my part as a wife soon(routchil gealon)
Being a wife or getting maried here in phil first of course I need to have or apply for a spousal visa ryt?

But remember via November 2008 rules in the UK changes for the age preferences instead of 18 they arisen it into the 21 up higher........so if this is compulsory, well I need to wait till I be 21 as I'm 18 recently!!!


So next step I'm thinking for a

SCHENGEN VISA........is it applicable to me, do this have a age limit at least 18 yrs old higher?

Or so if ok for me to apply wat is req as I'm Filipino passport holder and as my hubby British passport holder as well?


So what is best things req for this visa type.............


Nice to hear you all

I'm willing to listen all advices here and I'm glad I got lots of good details

God bless

The schengen visa is only for people who already have a visa for one of the other countries covered by the schengen agreement. If you already had a UK visa and were already living in the UK, you would apply for a schengen visa to be able to travel to France, Italy Spain or Germany etc.

[rutchzzz143]

ahhhhhh i see

but i just wonder my frnd being 18 her fiancee from norway is going to apply for her directly a shengen visa..would it be ok as she have no any visa yet instead PI passport......as her fiancee is from norway


wat do u think ian?


nice to hear you later

[Tawi2]

Heres how to apply rutch,you cant use the visa to enter the UK however.

[Mrs.JMajor]

And you can ask your fiancee to apply for extension of his stay in PI at Immigration dept...that somewhere in Manila(Taft) not sure the exact place,try to search in net,because only 21 days allowed

[Tawi2]

I think she is cebuana or visayan Mrs M,in which case he can get his visa extension in Mandaue near the fire station,at the bureau of immigration,strange place,I remember going there once in shorts,the guard said the rules had been changed and you had to wear long trousers,he had several pairs for rent when I went in march it was acceptable in shorts again,they keep changing the rules what a lazy bunch in there,they sit reading newspapers and lounging around

[Mrs.JMajor]

Wowow,you really amazed me of how clever you are in places....how many times you went to PI ??

[Tawi2]

50?Maybe 60?I was based in Hong Kong for years and used to go there often,I also stayed for 6 months once just looking around in the south

On arrival he asked to be allowed to stay 2 months. The visa was issued there and then upon payment of the fee.

UK is not Norway, and the UK is not a shengen country

only was you will get to the uk is a visit visa, student visa or if your husband goes and lives in another European country for at least 3 months and finds a job/self employed etc, so you can apply for a family permit, then come to the uk

[rutchzzz143]

oohhh!!!! thanks for the wonderful conversation Mrs.M and Tawi2x
otherwise if my fiancee will just be staying in the UK will no chance for me to get a schengen visa instead if he will used to stay for few days in some schengen places..............though he is trying to be here in phil middle of july.........so of course he is a passport holder as british w/c is given a timescale to stay in phil for 21 days only..so for such reason he will be staying in phil more than that days w/c could be 3 months..............

so this my main concern now.........will he be going to get the visa in the UK first b4r he leave there soon........or he will used to apply it here in manila embassyso if visa granted in the uk for staying or visiting phil how many days is expected to get the visa on hand???????

Might though be easier to get a visitor visa issued in the UK first. They claim to usually be able to issue a visa in a couple of working days.

hi routchil,

As for fiancee go to ur local immigration office so he can stay longer here in phils. it will take only mins to get his visa extended just fill up the form and pay certain amount. you can give the flight details of ur fiancee so they will know how many months he be staying. Its easy, quick and cheaper here i think. Note that they dont count the actual extended days but i think minimum is 2 mos. Anyway, just go to ur local immigration office so u not be thinking with it anymore instead have a happy time together Congrats for the upcoming wedding
As to ur age, applying spouse visa gonna take awhile age limit now is 21.

[rutchzzz143]

so bhabes..........if he is going here in phil of course as british passport holder he is only allowed to stay for 21 days limited......so if he can stay here longer than that he will apply for extensions here for few months...................instead of applying a visa in advanced in the UK..........So might be easy in doing that here......right?


so b4r how much did you paid for a visa/ extension of staying here?
