Hi from UK.

[IanT]

I'm hopefully heading for life in Pampanga and looking for advice on living and visas etc... to make my life there with my gf.

Hi IanT, welcome to the forum

Very broad issues there.
I'm sure you've done plenty of thinking and plenty of research.
You'll find a great deal of invaluable information here.

Just for a start, may I ask you, have you visited Philippines before?
Have you met your G/F?
Your age is indicated as 49, means pensions are not yet available, do you have some ideas on how you may secure and maintain sufficient income to live in Philippines?

I would wish you every good luck in your dream.
Just trying to help.

welcome to the forum

good luck with the move there

personally pampanga would be the last place i would settle if i was serious about my lady-even if here family were from there- too much temptation on your doorstep and too many boozy nights- which id ok if you are single
