Get merry Philippines woman

Hi,

For the first I am so sorry of my English language because I am not English native.I live here almost two years and I met a woman from Philippines and I looking for some info on internet about it.and I would be ask how are if I am not UK citizen I can to marry my girlfriend from Philippines here in UK?

Thanks.

Tricky one for me to answer. But some on here will know.

Where are you from, ILeifz?

I am from Latvia.

Welcome to the Forum, ILeifz.

I am not an expert on such matters but I do believe that you most certainly can marry your lady in the United Kingdom but you and she will be subject to the same Visa requirements as would apply if you were a British citizen. In other words you will need to prove that you have adequate accommodation, that your relationship is lasting and that your earnings are at least £18,600 a year, among others - the exact requirements are contained within a number of posts on this Forum and are published on the UK Borders Agency web site.

The UK Fiancée Visa is neither particularly easy to obtain nor is it inexpensive and the cost, along with all other Visa types and Consular Services is set to rise as from 6th April. You may find it much easier (and cheaper!) to bring her to Latvia, marry her there and once she has a residency permit, you can bring her to the UK under the EU Family Permit scheme.

Thanks guys.I looking in UK Border Agency web site and yes I find there info that if I am EU citizen I can to get marry here and she can to apply the Fiance Visa.

Where is your fiancee from? Which part of the Philippines?

She was live before typhoon Roxas city but now she live in Iloilo.I think it is Bisayas province.I am not so much particular familiar with a Philippines provinces.

I see. Was she forced out by the typhoon damage?

I have been to Boracay which is an island of the NW West coast there, west of Kalibo.

Thanks for explaining this all and I feel sometime in my head a mess because are a lot info.
You mean I could to get married in Philippines and I can to come back to the UK?But my fiansee must to stay in Philippines on the time?
I planing to visit my girlfriend this December and then I come back and can to apply EU Family Permit for my fiansee,right?
But what happened if I not earn £ 18.600 in year?

Sorry if I have a lot question,but it will my first trip outside EU.

Yea she moved because was typhoon and her house completely damaged and gone all what was in life.

Thanks.

She live with mom now together.Oh I forget but still need mails I mean our conversation must be printed on paper format.And when happened interview?I think they wish to get interview from me too.I mean we both could get interviewed?
I not see there problems from my side to get marry her in the Phils.If I am correct in Phils can to stay 21 day if not then correct me.

Thanks.

It is good then can to stay thirty days.And this time I can to get married,right?But if I live in my fiansee flat?
After we get married we need to go to VFS center?
I bit not understand what is means VFS?I just understand there need to apply for Visas.

My girlfriend told I need do some vaccines and need medical history.But I have not that.

Ah yes, of course, thanks for correcting me! But then, in a slightly later reply:

Surely none of that applies in the case of a Family Permit, does it? Surely all he needs to demonstrate is that he is a "qualified Person" - ie has a National Insurance Number, proof of employment and salary, and, proof of adequate accommodation?

Were you to visit the Philippines in any month other than December, you could get married within the 30 day period, but not I fear in December due to the fact that government offices will be closed for more days that month than any other.

Well not directly, no. VFS/UKBA will require the NSO version of your Marriage Certificate. The NSO - National Statistical Office - is the government department that records all births, deaths and marriages and their Certificates will not be available for anything up to 2 months , depending on how conscientious is the local Registrar.

VFS is a local commercial company that has the Philippine franchise to accept and check Visa applications on behalf of UKBA.

A course of anti-Tetanus inoculations would be a good idea unless you are already up to date with those.

Thanks guys for advice here.

Then I should to choice other month for visiting there.But I think flight there before Xmas and back January.Maybe should to visit her January or November.Yes look like not so easy.

OKi if I understand everything well I visiting my girlfriend and we spend time together and take pictures too where we both.Then we could to get married if my girlfriend get marriage certificate.And it seems we get married under Philippines lows.
And then I come back to the UK and then I can to apply all for the Visa?Uhmm in my gear is mess now and need so much to do before I visit her there in the Philippines.And yes I never been outside EU and it will be my first trip.
I apply in the UKBA for the Visa then I am back to UK?

But how I can get this Anti-Tetanus if I no one time been to doctor here in UK?OKi I go to local Medical clinic and will know it.

Hello,

But what happened if we could not to get married in the Phils.But do it in the UK?
