    Hello, my wife and I are in the UK and we plan in a couple of years to build our own home. I'm aware that being a non filipino I cannot buy land or property and that I would need to apply for filipino passport in order to do so, I believe my wife can petition me for this, can anyone help me with this, thanks.

    Id put that idea on the back burner if I were you..
    For starters you need to live here for at least 5 years without leaving..You also need to be able to show a good proficiency of speaking the language... They also ask you to swear allegiance to the Philippines and no other country.. Its absolutely ridiculous that they allow their own countrymen to hold dual nationality but will not allow foreigners to do the same..
