but since you'll passport will expire soon i would suggest renew your passport first b4 apply for FLR,at least nk 2 putok ka isang bala lng kasi rerenewhin mo din soon,i renew mo na din lng pr isa effort lng po
got you on that... but as mentioned in my post, my visa will expire on march 1 (that's 4 weeks after the marriage will take place)..and the thing is, embassy website said that waiting period for renewal of passport would run for 4 to 6 weeks.. website is mute on whether they are referring to just new passport applications or would also cover renewals...in which case, that might pose as a problem when my fiancee visa would expire soon...

the question is not on whether i would want my spouse name in the visa or not.. my concern is actually the time frame when each of these processes would take place....
