    Hi Lee ...... welcome to the forum. I see that you have already visited the Philippines. Where did you go and what were your thoughts? Wishing you the best of luck with your fiance's visa and I hope that you have an enjoyable trip when you return in May!

    You might need to wait until you become a member before you can display a photo on your profile. It only takes 15 posts to become a member so keep on posting!

    I've not been to Bacolod city, but have been to Paranaque, Makati, Tagatay, Taal and that lovely place with the rice terraces (I think it's Bagiuo), plus a few other places that I can't recall the name of. Such lovely, happy people

    Hi there Lee, welcome to the forum.

    Do some searching you may find it will help you both with the visa application.
    There may well be some changes to the settlement visa soon so keep looking in.

    I hope that's a professional UK Immigration advisor?
    If you're short of time etc it's a good idea to have someone help and do a final document check, but they still need the supporting evidence from you.
    Also the sponsor's supporting letter is personal to your case and you are the only one to do it.
    It's a personal choice and I would never try to influence your decision.
    Just be sure you have what you think you have, and what you need. Read the forum.
    No offence intended Lee. Just looking out for new members

    Hi Lee and welcome to our friendly forum.
    Think closely about what Terpe has said above. My wife signed up for some expert help in the Philippines when submitting our visa application and so far its cost 40000 php and our application was refused. Unless your help is going to be a professional from the uk I would advise you to keep your money in your pocket.
    Good luck with your application.

    Now I realise that might just sound a tad corny for some folks, but in my own experience I've found it to be very true.

    Hiya leec. First of all welcome to this friendly forum and we're happy to be of help to the best of our knowledge and individual experiences. My hubby is a brummie too but we now live in Wolverhampton. If u have any concerns, u can talk to him anytime as well.

    It is stressful but it's worth it after. Have a lovely holiday. 2 mons & a half more to go....
    If you can't say something nice. SHUT UP!. Simple.

    I was in the same boat last october and we got the visa without any professional help so it can be done as long as u follow the rules and provide as much information as you can collate, put it in the correct order and dont give the ECO any reason to raise doubts about your relationship. Always be honest with your application and im sure you will receive the outcome u both want, best wishes and welcome to this most amazing and helpful forum.

    We waited one month but it does seem to vary an awful lot from a matter of days to several months. Best to take your time, check your application and double check it or even ask someone on here for their thoughts on what u have written. Im more than happy to help you as its still relatively fresh in my memory.
