Andy, it is not the same. The easiest visa for a foreigner married to a Philippine citizen is the 13a visa. Not difficult to get just takes a few trips back and forth from immigration. in total it should cost between 10 and 15,000 pesos. There is a new rule that you should have police clearance from your own country.
