Dan, we are on the same boat, im going to apply through this route which is Visit Visa but main problem is i have no outstanding reasons for the UK border( ECO )to believe that im not going to overstay in UK thou our are intentions are pure that i am going be back before my visa expires to prepare our wedding in Philippines, i just quit working abroad and no strong ties with Philippines as i dont have a child and a business and properties just saving in the bank, hope that would make up but still there is a big questionmark in my head.... till now i am not certain, whether m going to apply General Visa or Fiancee. please let me me know how it goes... that would be very helpful. Thanks....
