Terpe, i will check out the UKBA and VFS web pages and the Philipine link to that website. So you say it is a matter of submitting all my paperwork etc. then i can return home to await the processing at the British Embassy. What is a tourist visa, i thought the minimum visa was a general visa.

.....What is a tourist visa, i thought the minimum visa was a general visa.

Please take a look at the UKBA webpage specifically for visit visa's which can be found here - Visiting the UK

By following the UKBA links on that page you'll have a much better idea of the requirement/elements of the different categories.
