    He can get copies of Decree Nisi and Absolute from the County Court Archives.
    The service may cost a few pounds

    I'm not sure if anyone has the luxury of time to call you and your husband just to help you with your case, take note that others are working and busy. Regardless, I tried to look for answers online regarding this matter.

    * "If you remember which county court issued your decree absolute, you can contact that court directly in order to get your copy. You can find the contact details for your court in the Court Directory.

    If you have the case number for your divorce, a copy of the decree absolute will only cost you £5 – however, without the case number, it will cost £40. It may be worth going through old documentation or asking your ex-partner in order to find the case number and avoid this extra cost.

    What if I don’t remember which court to contact?
    If you don’t know which court you need to get in touch with, you will need to ask the Principal Registry of the Family Division to search their records for your divorce. This will be more expensive still, costing you £60. You can contact the Principal Registry of the Family Division at the following address:

    First Avenue House
    42-49 High Holborn
    London
    WC1V 6NP

    *If you want to get married in the Philippines please take time to read the document attached, it will help you how to give notice.

    *It will depend on you where you want to marry, we can't dictate you to do what is right for you. If you want to marry here again read the attached file or if you want to marry in the UK you can apply for a fiancé(e) visa, all details you need are here. Again, all up to you.

    To be honest all you need is in the internet, everything can be found through there but I understand that not all of us is keen on digging through the net so I did the job for you. Hope I'm able to help you.

    You can ask more questions if you can't understand something and we will be glad to help. :)

    Regarding getting a copy of his Decree Absolute, he just needs to contact the court which issued it, costs £10 for a copy;

    coz we both stupid on this and he has no patience for too many requirements needed.

    i would suggest you get your b/f to join this forum--there is lots of useful informatipn and guidance here....or--if its too much trouble for him--maybe go to a immigration lawyer to handle the case...but then your costs will escalate.

    get him to read the sposorship appendix--

    thats just for starters.

    Applying for a UK Visa is not for the faint hearted. You both need to be patience or else you might end up seeing each other in a funny situation. ;)
