Hi, welcome to the forum.

What you need to know...

As Filipinos going abroad as fiancé(e)s, spouses or other partners of foreign nationals, you are required to attend the CFO's guidance and counseling session in order to secure the Guidance and Counseling Certificate (GCC) and the CFO sticker. You need this certificate to renew or apply for a new passport at the Department of Foreign Affairs (per Department of Foreign Affairs Order Nos. 11-97 Implementing Rules and Regulations for Republic Act 8239, "Philippine Passport Act" and 28-94). You will also need to present this certificate together with your spouse/partner visa, at the Immigration office at the international airport on your day of departure.

people who are married or leaving the phils on a fiancee visa definitely need one, as for 'other partners ' maybe that's a family permit or unmarried partner visa would need one.

your not married and you've applied for a visit visa not a fiancee visa so i would have thought you don't need a CFO sticker

as it states you need to present this cert with your spouse\partner visa something you don't have

give them a call to check , but make it clear he's your fiancee but your not leaving on a fiancee visa and intending to marry and live in the UK your only going for a visit on a visit visa, you will be returning to the Phils.
