what are you refering too when you say she,hasnt she had the case finished?

as i already posted just give all details?

the case as finished hasnt it?,because the courts can stop her leaving the country?

[joebloggs]

my understanding is, if you been found guilty in a court, then you should declare it.. like you've mentioned traffic offences, where you were found guilty in court.

Is it estafa??
If it is,, then it is characterized as a criminal offence.

So u mean settled already? just my opinion maybe leave it blank if its sorted already or ask a copy of NBI (National Bureau of Investigation) if shows there no criminal record on file then it's fine..IMHO

Before filing she should get all the documents and get information of the contents.
I am not sure if omitting some documents is the right way to go.

I think the both of you have to plan a strategy in advance.

Word of Caution.

I have a Filipina friend who has lived for many years in Spain and also in UK for long periods (total 18 years). She now wants to go to UK and to get married to her English boy friend, but they will continue to live in Spain where they both have villas and where her two sons are established in schools. She has permanent resident status in Spain (Schengen).

Recently she applied for a multi entry visa to UK. In the quest asking if she had ever been refused a UK visa she put 'NO.' They discovered that she had been refused once although she had been granted visas since then. For that one reason they said they had to refuse a visa this time as she had answered a question incorrectly. I believe she has lost her 450 euros application fee too.


Re the question put by Ross. I cannot understand the probelm fully. Maybe a fuller explanation might be a good idea.

In General:-

Criminal cases (in UK) are dealt with in Criminal courts (magistrates courts, crown Courts). Cases dealt with in Civil courts (Small Claims Courts, County Courts etc)are not criminal cases. I would think that this general rule would probably apply in Phil too.

However, my advice is to be honest in all answers, and if in doubt, attach a written explanation.

[aposhark]

......please enlighten us dont wnt to risk the application of getting worng is filling up...

Ross, if it was me, I would never answer any question on a visa application form incorrectly.
There is too much to lose; a bad outcome/decision at the end and loss of the financial cost of the application.

Honesty is the best policy.

[Mrs.JMajor]

Is it estafa??
If it is,, then it is characterized as a criminal offence.

All case sent to court is criminal case

So u mean settled already? just my opinion maybe leave it blank if its sorted already or ask a copy of NBI (National Bureau of Investigation) if shows there no criminal record on file then it's fine..IMHO

That is a better way to know if the case was in Philippine record (NBI)

you know what Mrs mJOR YOUI REALLY MUST BE CAREFUL OF WHAT U SAY HERE u diont even know who am i and what im talking here and you said estafa>?? are you insane can u look at the dictionary what estafa means why would i ask adsvice here if i know its estafa its call a small claim of money case fall under judicial dispute resoltion..

estafa
es·ta·fa [ ə stáffə ] (plural es·ta·fas)
noun
Definition:
Philippines fraud: fraud or deception, or an instance of it


Thing is...if you dont want to hear any words from other people advise then dont post it in public forum, you just cant get any reply that you just want to hear, this is a public forum and you should aware all the negatives and positive reply to from any individual, any how good luck for filling the application form of settlement

If I get offended you by the word "estafa" I apologise, its not you anyway, isnt it? As you said it was your friend filling the form, sorry for that

Ross

Judicial Dispute Resolution (JDR) would seem to be a non criminal procedure where two or more parties go before a judge to settle civil disputes. That is, something which is not contrary to the criminal code. If that is correct (I hope others will correct me if I am wrong) then it is not a criminal case.

However, as has been said before, if in doubt, show it and give an explanation on an attached sheet.

[pennybarry]

BAD DEBT -A bad debt is a debt that is not collectible by creditors from the borrowers. Bad debts are delinquent and are generally been written off as uncollectible loans. The creditors may take up various steps to retrieve their bad debt from the market. On the other hand, the individuals may often fall prey to unfortunate circumstances and may fail to pay back the loan amount thus coming under the mounting pressure of bad debt. The borrowers can take some bad debt management plans or bad debt consolidation plans to solve their financial crises.

As far as I know, it is a civil case BUT if you have ignored court summons for the debt. Then it turns it into a criminal matter and you could have a criminal record.

Non-payment of debt is usually civil rather than criminal, so long as there isn't evidence of fraud or theft.

That sounds from BIR (BUreau of Internal REvenue)concern well that must be common in PHil as I Rememebr WIllie Revillame and JUdy Ann SAntos famous celebrity here didn't able to pay their Tax in time but they managed to sort out things

I agree to JOhn I guess he's right as I've told you ask a copy of NBI record if it doesnt appear anything ie. no criminal records then just answer "NO" and as what JOe said phone or email the embassy the better
Goodluck

[Pepe n Pilar]

Hi Ross,
I just wish your friend has sorted this out already. Yeah as per some members advice here to let her secure the NBI which is an evidence she is cleared from any cases. Best of luck on her application. I wish your friend all the best. Take care.

Cheers!

[acs]

[Jay&Zobel]

Three post for me, yeah,I already ask for apology about the word estafa which i didnt mean for you but you keep insulting me back, just came from work for 10 hours and this is what I get from you, you only log in to the forum for seeking advice, and if you dont like my reply to you,dont attack me with all your nasty words that even my husband read your post because you include him to your words, your such a mean one, good luck to your "friend" application people in the forum just hang on if they dont like other members comment, thats it as I say we can have negative and postive result for our querries because we or I are not expert just human being do some mistakes in life but you really attack me with your rude words,

[tiN]

Goodluck on your friend application

[tiN]

I think we just need to cool down a bit here..

[charlwill]

Hi, Ross.
I think, before she (your friend or fiancee?) will fill up the form, let her go first to NBI and then apply for a clearance (NBI Clearance). That way she/yourself will know what to answer on that certain question if she got NBI clearance in her hand. Just take one step at a time, don't rush. You get there somehow. As what others have already told you it's good to answer the questions in the form with all honesty. If she will apply for NBI clearance pretty damn quick, that would be better.

To all forumer: IMHO, we will reply the querries of other people courteously as we are in the public forum. If people know the answer, for sure they will not going to ask. If they ask then, that will be their way to double check. We should act like mature people in here (stop being childish) and try to consider each person's feelings. Don't be too harsh. Giving negative rep is not an option especially if that is your way of getting back at them.

[Florge]

All case sent to court is criminal case

Sorry but I have to disagree... not ALL cases filed in court are criminal in nature. We have civil cases in court as well.
