hi good luck with your lady. i can't help with visa rules, i found them a bit daunting and never tried applying yet. was thinking about a visit visa first, but now my relationship went tits up so looks like that idea is out the window. I was told if you are married getting a visa is a piece of ****. 2 to 3 weeks a flipina told me, and you don't even need such good qualifications, but i don't know from my own experience. sori i can't be more help. best of british to u and ur fiancee
