Documents for General Visit Visa in UK

[Vivianmanila]

Hello everyone I was very thankful that I found this site . I've been reading to this forum 1 month ago and you helped me a lot.
My 1st application was refused because I wasn't able to convince the ECO I would return back before the visa will expire. Anyway these are the documents I submitted:

Applicants
My passport
Birth certificate
Employer's letter with granting leave of absence for 6months
My bank statement and bank certificate
A cover letter explaining everything one I need to return home
Family pictures
Photos of us that we spent time when my bf visited me and together with family
Copies of chatlogs through wechat and skype
Sponsor documents
Scanned copy of his passport
Utility bills
Driver license
Bank statement
Photos of his house
His plane ticket that he visited me in Philippines

So now I am waiting for the results. Hoping and praying there's a good result.
.
And if ever it will be granted what documents do I present to the immigration airport in Philippines and london since I have a sponsor? I don't have a return ticket to show coz my bf decided to go back with me to Philippines before my visa expire.your advice is highly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello Vivianmanila, a warm welcome aboard Filipino UK

Good luck with your visit visa application.

Were you able to counter previous visa refusal reasons by submitting clear supporting documents showing strong social, economic and family ties in Philippines?

Who will shoulder the finances for the visit?
If it's your BF did you submit evidence of his financial capability to support you for the duration ofthe visit? Including all bank statements.

It's quite a significant requesting a 6 month stay.....But all best of luck anyway.

Hello Sir Terpe. He, my bf, will shoulder all the expenses including the airfare. I will be staying in his house anyway. But yes I forgot to mention that I submitted a parent consent stated they met my bf and allowed me to visit my bf in uk and there waiting me here in Philippines. And invitation letter of my sponsor explaining everything why his inviting me to visit and that is to meet his family and friends and going around throughout the uk. He stated also in his invitation letter that he will return back with me to the Philippines to combine my father's and his birthday on the same month with us.
And yes I submitted his bank statement for the last 6 months.
My first application was refused because of I didn't show to them that I have a family here in Philippines, I submitted a certification of employment but no reference that they granted me to leave,didn't show that how and how much my salary every month im single but I didn't show bank statement of savings coz I thought its not needed since I have a sponsor.

So for this second application I submitted all documents that I didn't showed them before.

Last friday I got an email that my processed visa was received at the uk visa application center and then I went this afternoon to pick up my documents but sad to say I refused again .they additionally noted a letter from my employer providing me a vacation for 6 months (because embassy rang my employer) but I failed to show a sufficiently strong family,social and economic ties in Philippines and not satisfied that I am a genuine visitor and leave the uk on completion of my proposed visit. Please help me
