She is studying at college to be a nurse and has 3 years to go so she wouldn't be coming over until 2012.As for Maritess, we have been talking for quite a few months now. We talk nearly every day by webcam. When I talk on the phone I also talk to her parents. Maritess has a Bsc in Commerce. We just started to talk about everyday things and as I am 56 as of today I never thought about a relationship, I just enjoyed talking to her. Obviously I was aware of the age gap and as we talked I started to have feelings for her and it was the same for her and the age gap didn't seem to bother her. Yes, it did go through my mind that I was being used to get her over here but the more we talked the more I trusted her. I plan on going over there for a holiday first to see how we get on face to face. Another thing is her religion. She is am ember of Iglesia Ni Christo and this seems to be quite a radical religion, if that is the right word and she wants me to convert to her religion before we can marry. So after all that the question is ,would she be allowed to come here as my wife and could her sister come here in 2012.
Thanks for all the replies folks.

First is you must realised that she cannot marry you till you convert to her religion or if she would convert to yours (which i dont think she will). So you must sort that issue first and foremost. Secondly, her sister can be allowed only for a visiting visa or a student visa...but that would cost you money. She cannot have any other visa than that as she cannot be petitoned due to her age (21 on 2012), if it is a visitors visa it will only allow her a couple of months to visit you but she will not be allowed to work. Student visa, yes she can work but only 20hrs in a week but remember she must enrolled in a college. and lastly is she will marry another brit
