    Hello Friends
    We are applying for my wifes Spouse Visa and I am in the process of applying for a TB test appoinment via email. I am confused about this section:

    Type of Visa Applying for: UK Spouse Settlement Visa.

    Is my answer correct or should it be something else?

    Thanks.

    I am somewhat nervouse about the actual application as it seems very complicated. Have no choice but to apply myself as I was quoted extortionate fees by "immigration lawyers".
    The TB test is the last obstacle before her visa application and we had a test done in a local clinic (negative) prior to her attending the official clinic in Manila.
    Given the support and advice here I am sure we will get there eventually. Just a matter of stopping and asking questions when not sure.:)

    Yes, A1 life skills passed. CFO interview can be done locally in Davao we understand (mobile unit). The only grey area is accomodation, but from what I read here my situation is acceptable. I am living with friend that is a homeowner, they are willing to sign whatever immigration needs, there is no overcrowding issue and we can stay as long as we like until we have our own accomodation. The grey area is I dont have utilty bills in my name only Bank statements and a mobile phone bill.
    All the other requirements have been met.:)

    Advice please, is it best to declare any previous medical history when attending TB clinic or best left unsaid?
    Some years ago my wife had Pneumonia but we had a chest xray done in Davao and all is normal now.
    Our worry is declaring that might trigger requests for a sputum test and more hassle.

    As far as I am aware CFO cannot be done in Davao.
    It was extra expense for us but we went to Manila for everything.

    Also, do not pay priority anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You will waste your money.

    I agree, priority is a waste of money:). I have a link and email address for a mobile unit that offers CFO interviews in Davao will check it out and report back. Need to be careful I guess.
