just apply for the visit visa and then see what your next step is..
why give up so easily after 2yrs ?
you must be patients and be careful next time, they are many fish in the ocean louis, and many good filipina ladies here, only you to do take your time knowing a lady. when you feel she is the right one for you, just go for it, try find a lady who are honest and loyal.
Hello louis, i am now applying general visa, only waiting now the result. i be with my partner for 21 days here staying in the philiipines so good full of love and romance, we chat for 8 months then after finally meeting here in my country. when he return we immediately apply a tourist visa, i wish and keep praying i obtain visa for next year either february or march.
Goodluck for you and be happy :@)

Hypocrite. You can feel all the sorriest that you like but you don't know anything beyond your nose.
I’m the only one who knows what I am doing in what I am doing.
If you don’t like it?
You know what you can
do.
Hi Ann. It is nice to meet people who know how to be nice..
I'm happy for you and I hope all works out well too.
This nonsense could go on and on and on and on.
until someone gets aThis nonsense could go on and on and on and on.or
time to move on and forward guys
I totally agree...lets see how this goes?
I agree, at least try for it and if it doesn't work out at least you and she will know you tried. A long distance relationship is never easy and at times one or both of you will have to make extra efforts or do things out of your comfort zones to move things to the next stage and being together.
why give up so easily after 2yrs ?
So guys. I too am trying to get a visa for my girlfriend. She has been refused twice as the ECO has requested more information. The 2nd application for a tourist visa had a lot more information but still the ECO is not convinced that my friend will return to the Php's. She has 4 children, which may be the issue. We are now digging out old business papers to show that she has been able to support herself and children in the past and so can also in the future. But does anyone have any other thoughts on what else can be included to make it 3rd time lucky?
Also can anyone tell me if there is a limit to how many times you can apply for a tourist visa? Is 2 attempts already a lot? Does it mean it could be a no forever?
Are there any other approaches we could try? Currently using Manila Visas to assit us. They seem good and experianced.
Ps This is my first post so i hope i haven't made any mistakes!
thou each visa application is judged on its own merits and past refused shouldn't effect any future applications (unless deception was used) , applying for a 3rd visit visa would probably end up with a refusal to, unless she can convince the ECO that she will return, which is no easy task, also a visit visa is always a bit of a lottery
Dont give up,long distance love grows and grows,Filipinas are very loyal,trust me,you never forget,good luck.
Hi ...Is the VIP worth going for?
It's a personal choice as the cost is low.
Really depends on how your g/f feels. Most people on here who have done that additional service have been very happy.
Hi
Thank you for that.
How much does it cost, I mean the V.I.P. treatment at the Embassy?
Thank you
Louis,

Olivia seems happy to wait
I did tell her about this service, V.I.P. But she does not mind waiting in line.
So if I can know the cost, maybe it won't be too much for her?
The VIP lounge was an extra £25/£28, as I recall. Sounds expensive but is small change in relation to other costs, particularly the spouse or fiancee visa. It makes submission of the documents a little more comfortable and quicker, thats all. Easier to book with less notice required and more flexibility on your choice of date. And refreshments and free text messaging is included (not that the text messaging was that useful). In our case it was worth it as my wife had a long and arduous journey to VFS and so this just helped a little to make the application easier on the day.
The VIP option does not speed up the processing of the visa application. And neither does it affect the decision.
I think it is a little overpriced but other than that worth the outlay.
If only everyone could be dealt with in the same way.......
I could not wait the result louismc44, we still waiting. i read mostly been rejected and refuse a tourist visa. i wish this is my good luck this year a visa. ECO wish be happy looking our documents and satisfied.
Have a good day!
i think on average only around 30% of visit visa's are refused, but that figure probably includes family visit visa's which you probably have more chance of getting than a general visit visa. (that's if your eligible to apply for a family visit visa) so i would have thought for a general visit visa for the phils , average refusal rate must be around 30-40%, but then it all depends on how good your evidence and visa app are,i read mostly been rejected and refuse a tourist visa. i wish this is my good luck this year a visa.

The day i submit my documents to the vfs i received a message thru sms and email, that my application is already dispatch to the british embassy, then in day 24 i received from visa application that my application is being process by the british embassy. hence, its a peak season longer for processing application. till now i still waiting. could not wait for the result, they still not phone embassy to interview me. i am still waitingi think on average only around 30% of visit visa's are refused, but that figure probably includes family visit visa's which you probably have more chance of getting than a general visit visa.

did your b/f say he was financing all your visit, and did you state any reasons for you to return b4 your visa expires ?
hi joebloggs, thank you
i still not receive my visa, i am still waiting, yes my bf he state their she finance all my trip, and sorry i not writing a letter of my reason for my returning, coz i am thinking i showing a photograph of my daughter on her birthday celebration,when my bf was here.. and before we meet she sending me money for 10 months.
well it be better if you had good reasons to return, but that is not easy for most people to demonstrate, but that's probably the main reason for refusal for a visit visa.
all you can do is hope and with a bit of luck
you should know pretty soon for a VV. best of luck thou
