Thanks for the replies guys,
Ok to make things a bit clearer, shes my gf now , but early next yr we are getting married.
Her 2 children are coming with her ......Solicitor said that she has to apply for spouse visa,(after we are married) and at the same time apply for 2 dependant visas one each for her children.....this will cost aprox £2,000 just under actually, and has to be filed by her in the Phils............i need to supply all criteria here, which i am able to do, but it does seem a bit of a minefield
