Once again, thanks for the replies from the earlier post, especially Pete regarding the financial support - you are correct on all your points, I was not the best supporting person there.

anyway, I've been reading some sites and they say (some also say this is rubbish) for my philippine girlfriend to get a fiancee visa to marry me in the UK she also needs to supply these 2 certificates with her application:

Certificate of Singleness - I've also heard that if the embassy wants to know this they will get this themselves.
Birth certificate.

Also, is it possible to book a date with the CAVA call centre so that if I do go out there we can have a date prebooked for when I arrive?

I have let my girlfriend down so she did the same to me - I have told her what she did with this other guy is also my fault.

thanks for your help again,

Lee

There is no requirement for your fiancee to obtain a certificate of singleness, I dont know where you got that information from, in my experience, and that of others, it is not a requirement, she certainly needs a birth certificate on NSO Security papers, and with the correct names on, that is her maiden name, and her given name.

Im glad you see the points I have made in the previous thread, that you did not reply on, but now you have started a further thread, it might have been better for you to continue on the previous thread, instead of starting a new topic, however since you have, I will answer here, you should really beware of professional immigration experts, we never claim to be, but there is more experience on the FilipinoUK forum than any other, your best advice will always be here, a certificate of singleness is unheard of, if the Embassy is suspicious about your GF's marital status, they will check with the NSO themselves, which is what is known as "Local checks" once they have completed it, they will advise you of the outcome.

Hope that helps
