Hello,..got my visit visa 2 days after from the submission of my application documents. Penny is right.,but in my case I don't have enough money on my account that would prove that I'll be coming back and I don't own land, house, etc here. I submitted Employment Certificate with the approved leave of absence (for the planned visit), payslips, birth certs, bank statement, letter from the sponsor (both hand written and printed email), School certification of my 2 kids (they will be going with me), photos with my bf as proof of his visits. He also stated in the sponsor letter that he is again coming to the Philippines for the 3rd time for my application.If the visit will be sponsored by her bf, a proof the her bf could support her stay there is very important. Hope this will help yo ma'am...:-)
