    we got everyone done the right way, pay people under the table you risk, losing your money or worse get you fake papers, and forged papers will get you a long ban from the british gov, not worth the risk, like i keep saying 'tell a lie, wave your visa goodbye '

    I think many phill town halls will allow non resident people fill in the counsling paperwork in advanced or by proxy. If you live locally im sure for the long term gain its worth attending if asked.

    my wife filled in our spouse visa application with my help.

    Most applicants do the preparation of paperwork but of course the sponsor should help as much as possible.

    My wife and I printed the forms and completed them together off-line. She will file her application online after the 28th April when her new passport is issued - finally!

    Thanks Kimmi. jencha8569, your bf will have to provide you with a letter of invitation/support. Just confirming he can/will take care of your financial and accommodation needs during your visit.

    anyone who can help me bout my situation..please

    my case:

    my boyfriend and i wanted to be together. he from uk, cambridge,england to be exact. we've been talking on mesenger for a year started as friends then eventually fell in love with each other. he was here in philippines for 3 weeks
    last month and it was good times. he met my fam and friends and my way of living, our traditons and cultures.the love and bond tight really close. we planning to get married this year but our problem now is we dont know what visa is the eaisest to get and options that is best for us.

    1st visit-sponsoral visa coz we both wanted to be together and so that i can see his way of living and of course his family. and they say its the fastest way.my boyfriend wanted me to see england as to wether i will like to live there soon or not. he wants me to be happy so he making it a point that i can live their away from family and friends coz if not he will move here to philippines (take awhile coz he have to sort what job or business that will do good here) tough decision i know.
    2nd fiancee visa - is it possible for us to get married in phil first while waiting for fiancee visa then if granted i enter uk as single with fiancee visa?
    3rd marriage visa- marry here then apply spousal visa which they say takes awhile.


    we really need help and advise from someone who knows these things.
    we hoping to fix all things this year but first we want to know what visa is best and easiest to get . whats the best way to start to apply for any visa i mean what agency or if visit visa is it better if my boyfriend will process there or me here?

    i will appreciate any help or advice someone will give
    sorry i have to tell my story first..hehe

    best wishes and God Bless for all of us here
    ---------------------------------------------------------------**********----------

    Hi there! Don't bother for a fiancee visa. Too many requirements they need for you to prove. If he truly loves you, why don't you get married first in the Philippines, you have to prove to the immigration that its genuine marriage, loads of girls come here for marriage for convenience & that's what they don't like. Your partner has to prove as well that he's got a decent job, a house for you to live here in UK, meaning that he could support you financially w/o getting funds or benefits from the d government here. They will based it on facts & when approved they will give 2 years entry clearance or if you had been at least 3 yrs. marriage or relationship straight away you will be granted resdience permit or no time limit visa. That's all i can say.
