What exactly do the embassy want to see on six months bank satements and my six months bank statements ?? Any help wil be gratefully acsepted. Thanks guts. marlyn and kenny.

Hi Kenny, Where in Abra is your girl from ? my wife is from La Paz Abra.

Before you go to get married you must visit your local registrars office to get a certificate of no impediment to marry, you will need to make an appointment and then wait for about one month to collect your certificate.
You then take this certificate with you to British Embassy in Manila to have it converted to valid Philippines version (completed while you wait, not sure of the fee PHP 3000ish). Your fiance could start preparing for the wedding before you arrive, the requirements vary from district to district, will you marry in church or civil wedding ?

The requirements for finances is not black and white. What the Embassy are looking for is that you have enough spare money to look after your wife without having to claim additional public funds. Obviously having some savings/investments, having spare money to save each month, and not being overdrawn helps to show this. Though if for example you are already supporting your partner (and can prove this to the embassy) it wouldn't necessarily be any issue if you didn't have any spare money each month.

Thank you so much for your advice. I think i can pul this of. Though it still remains my big concern. I will have at least 1500 in my account on applying for visa in the manila embassy.Thats without being overdawn. But that overdraught is 1500 at my disposal. Thank you so much. so sorry about my grammer and spelling i am dyslexic. regards kenny and marlyn.
