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

[leec]

hi there welcome i,m newbie too lol my g f is from bacolod city too she says its a lot cooler than cebu where we live im back in uk now trying for visa if that fails we will move to bacolod later in the year

[leec]

Good luck. Yeah thats our plan if we dont get our visa. I will marry her there and move over there to be with her.

[malchard888]

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.

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.

[leec]

yeah i heard that...i have an agent working for me to make sure its ges done correct the forst time round

[Terpe]

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

[leec]

yeah its a professional one,i wouldnt have it any other way....

[bigmarco]

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.

[leec]

yeah my help is here in the uk.........thankyou we wont give up,our love is very real,and neither of us want to live ours lives apart from each other

[stevewool]

hi there and welcome, love will keep you together just takes a little time sometimes

[Terpe]

....love will keep you together .....

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.
Thank God

[leec]

TRUE

[Arthur Little]
