If you meet all the strict criteria of a tourist visa it is 'easy', but they statistically have the highest refusal rate of any visa in the Phil.
I never understand why the girls want them, and not a fiancée visa. What are you testing? It can only be the country, as if your possible hubby was decent, he'd visit YOU in the Phil, rather than dragging you half-way round the world.
If after he's visited you, you should know whether to dump him, or marry him, I can't see any middle ground for a tourist visa, unless as I say, you are looking to vet his house, parents, country, etc, which should not have any part to do with a marriage decision.....and this is also along the lines the way the immigration think.

hi Win2Win,
thank u very much for the reply it is really enlightening..being a member here really helps me a lot since I dont have nobody here around me to discuss my situation..
when we applied for a tourist visa, we only rely on the UKVACS for the informations and documents needed and since my bf has some medical problems that time we cant see any ways of meeting since it's one of the major requirements for the fiancee visa and now my bf is already cleared with his medical he will be able to come and visit here..
then hopefully we can apply for a fiancee visa afterwards..
THanks for the reply aug06_2006. Yeah I just need to be more patient. This visa stuff is really stressful...
Hi briank. I did submit my application direct to UKVACS too (rufino bldng). JUst hoping waiting time wont take 3 months or more........
Thanks for the word of encouragement. I'll try to have more patience waiting...........
Brian,
just wanna ask if i apply for a fiancee visa, will it be affected by my denied application of visit visa?hope u can enlighten me..
thanks..
I went to Wick once, it was closed !!!
Hi Kimmi,
Not in my experience. I too had a denied visit visa application when I applied for our Fiancee visa. You have to mention that you had the failure on the form, but it made no difference in out case. We still got the Fiancee visa without any problems.
Good luck with your application.
Brian
I still don't understand why some filipinas want to visit their internet boyfriend first by applying for a visitor's visa. no more pakipot, no more pamanhikan to the parents. it's so western...tsk,tsk,tsk... some filipinas have really changed now. if only internet wedding is legal.... :(
Neither do i
She must be brave

hi Ms. Hilda_danao,
just wanna comment about ur post that u can't understand why some filipinas want to visit their internet boyfriend first by applying for a visitor's visa, u also stated that there's no more Pakipot, no more Pamamanhikan to the parents..well,its a case to case basis and maybe the situation is different on urs which made it easier for u.. so i guess u'd better understand the situation first before u react.. what do u think?
btw, Im not commenting because I'm guilty its just I can't understand why u keep on posting that queries, I bet u're a teacher by profession..

Hi Kimmi
First of all I visited Anilyn first in the Philippines, I thought it was only right to see her and all her family before she travelled the 6000 mile to the UK I did not need a visa as I was there for just over two weeks. I had a great time and it confirmed that Annie was the girl for me and we got engaged.
I would say that you are rushing the whole process and this could cause problems with proof of a potentially lasting relationship. I communicated with Anilyn for nearly a year before I travelled. We spoke on a daily basis, either on the phone or internet and e-mail sending flowers and cards through the post etc in proper courtship style lost in the UK in the 50's?
Anilyn was able to get a Visitor Visa without any problem because of the ammount of effort put into the application, the photos, letters, financial stuff like bank statements etc, we put in more than requested to make sure they could see our relationship was working and that I could look after her financially while she stayed her with me for nearly 6 months. I took hundreds of Photos while in the Phil and all those of me and Annie where sent of in the application. This will take you a long time to assemble all the proof needed!
One important thing, if you are working in the Phil there is no chance of getting a Visitor Visa. Annie tried to visit her family in Switzerland a long time ago and was turned down because she had a job! Later when her work ran out working on San Roque Dam she was able to visit her family!
Annie is now back home in the Philippines where she has applied for a Fiancee Visa, we are still hoping for a positive response, we will keep you all posted as to the result. Deposited 23rd May 2007
I am hoping that The Bosses comment that What is she checking out? the country and house thing is not real :-) It was me that wanted Anilyn to visit to ensure that we was as compatable as we thought we was in our Internet Romance and 2 weeks together. Anilyn was everything I dreamed she would be!
When she arrived in the UK she was stopped by imigration for nearly 3 hours and I was contacted in the airport by them, asking what the purpose of her visit was, my reply was I wish one day to marry her and I wish to ensure that our love is real and lasting, you would not marry an English girl based on just phone calls would you? he said you have a good point and released her into my arms :-)
Take It Slow and it may help your case in the Embassy
Keep vast ammounts of records of your communication
Take lots of photos of yourselves together
Use the phone so that a record is kept of your chats, I know it is expensive but even if it is just to say I am on-line now or 15 minutes a day I use Phone Cards each day at work the number pops up on my Mobile phone bill as an inclusive contract number so I only pay the card fee
Anyway really your BF should be the one to visit you first, how can you tell if he is a good man? If I was your father I would be concerned about you travelling 6000 miles to someone who was a stranger to me!!!
Ok Good Luck
Ingat Ka Palagi
Paul
CPLURLTC Care, Patience, Love, Understanding, Respect, Loyalty, Trust & Concideration / Compassion Are all the values Me & Anilyn hope to give each other, sometimes we may both fail, but we will always try, I am sure most of u in here are the type to do the same with their loved ones.
Ingat Paul & Anilyn
If he was really sincere, he should be the one who suggested to visit you and not you visiting him first. you know, filipina values....it's just a piece of advice & it's up to you. Good luck!
YEP
wow..
Neither do i
She must be brave
------------>*nods on agreement*
thanks to everyone who agreed with me. i didn't mean and i didn't point my finger in particular to kimmi although i have posted it in her thread. my mistake is, i should have posted my comment on a new thread. i was just curious and i wonder what their parents think about their decision. was it disrespect to them? or are they even concerned about it? philippines is not really known to most people here. they know nothing about our culture. most of them don't even know where in part of the world philippines is. We should at least be known for our good filipino women values. moreover, i don't think the relationship will end up in a good marriage if it's the woman who usually chase the man.
anyway, thanks to kimmi for guessing that maybe i am a teacher. a values education teacher maybe? but i'm not and i never wanted to. i have no job right now but i used to work in accounting in phil and im taking up computerised bookkeeping right now. also driving lesson. hope to get a job soon if got lucky with the help of God.

Wow!This site is more exciting than I ever thought
I wonder what will happen next. But the3n I hope it will end up with sweet revenge...errrrr...I mean...sweet reconciliation between Hilda_Danao and young Kimmi
. After all, it's just a product of misunderstanding???
For Kimmi, I know this is an unsolicited advice but I think you already read what you want to read, knew what you need to know and it's really up to you what to do as to whether you want him to come in the Philippines first (after all, he don't need a visa to come to Philippines if onlyh for a short visa e.g. 2weeks). But you may want to consider that if he visited you first... you have all these opportunities to show him who you really are in person, your families, our culture, our food. It's the best time to rediscover your rapport, chemistry and compatibility. I'm saying this because I had my first British friend to come in the Philippines and dude, he didn't want to eat any food we served to him. My mum is a good cook and it's insulting! He just want bottles of mineral water and fried rice in his entire visits. He didn't even spent a penny for my parents when we had our lunch at McDonaldshe has to show off sometimes, atleast to my parents. He put me off and I never spoke to him again
Btw, Hilda_Danao can I add you in my buddy list. I am interested on your Computerized Bookkeeping Course. I am an Accounting graduate myself and want to gain certific8 in that field from this country.
Peace men!Peace!Spread the love
post ko rin dito.
hi pips!!!
just want to say thank you to that 2 filipina
na kasabay ko sa flight..sayang nga lang eh di ko nakuha any
contacts nila...
was my first time kasi to travel..
in an airport at doha need wait 6 hours for ouf flights going here..
been alone for a quite hours there.
t'was 2 hours more for aboard,these 2 pinay saw me sitting alone
and looked that i was worried..
so they both tried talking me..and said well no wonder kaya daw
i looked worried kasi first time ko. they convinced me to get well.
they both nice..and since they lived here in UK long years na rin.
i felt they want me beside me pero layo lang yung seats namin sa plane..
but when we arrived andun sila sa labas 'til i finished sa customs
naghintay sa akin..at sinabayan nila ako pagkuha ng luggage
'til dun sa paglabas namin.
kaya thankful ako for both of them coz i felt safe that time..
Felecia is the name of that other girl from bohol.
and didnt get the other girl name but she's from cebu..
