POEA!!! seminar

[A_flyer]

Well, was extremely frustrated about not knowing, after extensivly serching for information about bringing my g/f to uk, got the marraige visa sorted out, flights all booked, then BAM!!! was told at immigration at manila aiport she needed to attend one of theses seminars, why on earth is this information not freely available on the website. just hope now that the flights can be rearranged, and off course this "seminar" is a quick thing.

I'm just jumping lately on this, but all the foreign Embassies knows this as it's required by Philippines laws. When I inquired first at French Embassy to get a Fiancé visa for my now wife, it was indicated in the package of documents to get for the visa with addresses (including opening hours and web site) where to get the CFO seminar. I just asked some complementary informations from the Consul Secretary, so I had the full infos when I got the papers to fill-in for the visa request.
The British Embassy didn't warn you about it?

Knowing the Brit Embassy they probaly put a small passage of text on the web site, saying please make sure your aware of the local goverment regulations and procedure blah blah.
