    thanks Terpe..he is looking for a job in UK but not sure about the wages though ...if my settlement visa is not applicable, our 2nd option is for me to stay here and wait but the thing is I don't particularly want to be left behind here and away from my daughter and husband for who knows how long...is there any other option you think could work for us? we're just so lost

    Sorry to be so direct pinayinslu, but please do not waste your money on a UK visa application based on your current circumstances as it will fall for refusal.
    Please do take time to read the link I posted.

    Without having a firm job offer at the needed income threshold of £18600 the other option for all of you to be together in UK is if you have savings of £62,000 minimum.

    BTW, that income of £18,600 or savings of £62,000 do depend on your daughter having a British Passport.
    With only a Philippine Passport the needed income and savings will be at a higher level.
    So it is important to get that issue sorted out asap.

    If, as a family, you decide to set upon a strategy of your husband returning to UK to seek employment, then do be aware that he would need to secure employment at the needed income of £18,600 minimum for at least 6 months before you would be able to make visa application. He would need to be able to offer suitable and adequate accommodation.

    There is also one other option available.
    This is commonly called the EEA-Route and would involve re-locating to an EU country for a period of say 3 months. Employment would be needed but nothing special.

    I'll post further details on this with links to up-to-date forum threads for your review.
    In short after having spent a few months in an EU member country you ALL would be eligible for transfer to UK without the need for any costly settlement visa. It's free.

    It might sound a tough decision but I believe you should very seriously consider it.
    Please keep an eye to this thread I'll post more detail later.
