    Really? Its that simple? Have you done this yourself, what is the process? If it's easy I might do it just to be on the safe side.

    On a side note...do people think that Brexit will make it any easier/harder for us to bring our wives over or allow them to stay etc.

    Loads of people have done it (what jonnijon was saying). You have to pay a fee though. My husband has done it thru the hotel reception where we once stayed and we only have to wait a day at an extra fee.

    Regarding Brexit, visa processing for non-EU residents won't be affected in my opinion. It's already hard enough as many would say. Brits taking non-EU spouse/partner here are mainly scrutinised more compared to the ones from EU countries. You need to have plenty of money
    to be able to nowadays.

    Haha, that's great to know. Seems like it's just an exercise in filling out s form and paying a fee. I might just do that if I can't find concrete confirmation of the rule. Can you remember how much the fee was exactly?

    And as for money, you're right about that. I wouldn't be able to do it if I wasn't still living at my parents house and could save some money specifically for this purpose.

    We paid around PHP3,500 that time (that's including the fee charged by the hotel).

    According to Google:

    The cost for this first extension is 3,030 Pesos. When you are already 59 days in the Philippines and want to stay a bit longer, then your regular extension series starts. You have to show up at an office of the Bureau of Immigration a couple of days before your Visa Waiver expires.

    That ain't bad, thanks for the info. Where did the get the 59 day figure from that quote, I thought the maximum you can stay without a visa is 30?
