splitting up

I'm sorry to hear about your situation.

All i know is that my child is eligible for British Passport and I am not but because I am her mother, its only right that I am always where my child is (human right).

If such a right does exist, the British authorities are likely to advise you that you're perfectly entitled to exercise that right ..... in the Philippines. The fact that your child is entitled to a British passport does not mean that s/he has to live in the UK.

Also, you have mentioned your husband's debts. This may well be a problem if seeking to obtain a spouse visa.

thank you for a straight forward reply darren although the side comment trying to use my child is inappropriate and offensive. Like I said, I'm considering other countries and start teaching again.

You can try to consider NZ as alternative country. Try to visit their website and see their points system for applying immigrant/work visa.

You pay rent of 10K? I am paying 6000+ monthly amort. of 2BR close to Tagaytay but at the end of the day, it will mine. You may also consider to move to other place to find better teaching job, and pay less rent. These will help you in your savings. We have 5 teachers in our family, and some of them do part time english tutorials for Korean students studying at AUP. Some teachers can make good money in some reputable schools in the Philippines too. So please consider our country too


Goodluck! God Bless!

not much you can do, if your mother in law could help, and you might not like or want to risk what you will need to do, there is a something called 'Right of Access to A Child rule', which is complex and it would not be easy, and may not be possible in your case, and this rule could be scrapped soon.

seek legal advice thou, but you may find many solicitors/lawyers don't know about this rule..

but maybe it would be better if you and your hubby, maybe his mother could persuade him to help you and his daughter stay in the uk, maybe using this rule.

good luck

Would have to be done very carefully, otherwise would be heading down the path of trying to obtain a visa through deception which would be a 10 year ban.

oh i don't mean do anything illegal, i'm not suggesting that, i was still talking about the right to access the child, it would be easier if he would go along with it . also the child as a British citizen has a right to live in any country in Europe and the mother would have a right to apply to live with the child as a family member, but I don't know how a child could sponsor or exercise their treaty rights , but maybe there is away around this

need a good immigration lawyer

Like the other member here said that why not try to make friends with your husband then talk about the possibilites that you and your child can go to UK with the help of his family, if it is possible. If not possible for sure there's always a way to make a living in the Phils (Phils is not really a hopeless place to live) as long as you want to live a simple life. And as long as your husband is supporting you and the child that's the most important thing IMO.

Try to find work for a moment even in a call center atleast it will keep you busy and it helps generate some extra income aside from your husband's financial support. Good luck
