    So here I am in the Philippines to help my partner submit her partner visa application. I arrived here on the 12th of Feb and they announced the TB requirement on the 14th. Luckily we submitted her visa application online today and will submit the documents on the 26th. The 28th of Feb is when this new requirement starts.

    The requirements seem to change on a regular basis... have to keep an eye on these things for FLR.

    ... you don't say! ... it's like a full time job keeping up with all the changes. But at least your wife's application will soon be "moving forward".

    Good luck with it!
