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..
