You already know ALL the barriers you must climb to convince the ECO you have compelling reasons to return.

However, please don't become convinced that property in Philippines is somehow the magic key.
I just don't want you to be so convinced on that.

Did you talk with your partner about settlement visa?

Maybe your partner can make the move to Philippines?

I just want to help and not see you disappointed
Thanks Sir for following my situation. My partner & I discussed about the settlement visa and I took English review last month but when he talked with his kids, they said that they need to meet me first before we going for a civil marriage that's why we still continue for tourist visa. My partner is worried for medical if he will move here coz its not free unlike in UK. We talked buying a house or condo here in Cebu and I will register my garment shop this month in our hometown in Mindanao.

Sir, the reasons of my refusal last year are I am reliant to my partner and we intend to live together in the future, Do u have an idea if how can we solve the reasons of refusal?
