Hello Everyone! I'm so happy!
Today I got my Marriage Visit Visa.
I applied on January 30 and got it today February 11.

I was really nervous when I received the email and text from VFS because I didn't get the (your visa will be dispatched shortly) so I thought I was refused.
But when I get my documents and passport at VFS my visa is there!!! SURprise!!! haha.

So, I want to return the favour and share my experience.

The documents that I submitted in Order:
1. My birth certificate
2. Copy of Sponsor's Passport (Old and New) because the other visa stamps when were together was in his old passport so we submitted both.
3. The Bank Certificate
4. Sponsorship Letter
5. My Cover Letter
6. His Certificate of Employment
7. Payslips and P60
8. Accommodation Letter from his Mom
9. Land Registry Certificate (got it online)
10. Annual Mortgage Statement
11. Inquiries in their local Registry Office (emails)
12. Submitted photos and receipts of my wedding dress and shoes
13. Cenomar
14. Flight Confirmations, Hotel bookings (2011-2013)
15. Chat transcripts (just a few lines every month)
16. Photos --with him, my family and his family.
(His parents went here last year-April and they also come on our last holiday-November)

Note: I submitted photocopies of everything except for photos and chat transcripts.
When I submitted my application the lady in the visa centre told me that I should have photocopies of the photos as well but she said its ok she will just transfer the photos in the photocopies. So when I got my documents back the photos and Chat transcripts are not here anymore.

VFS centre- you cannot bring cellphones and other electronic gadgets inside, so you will need to put your things in the cloaking area with a fee of 100 pesos and then SMS fee of 110 Pesos and another 300 if you want the documents to be delivered. I didn't opt for the courier because I'm from Makati so it's cheaper to pick it up and of course it is faster.

On my financial side: I don't have a work, I don't have savings, as well, but I have a car (but didn't declare it hahah). I just stated that my parents are supporting me.

I will be glad to help, so feel free to ask
