The interview will be longish more than an hour, and what they are trying to establish is:


That it's a genuine marriage, and that you have accomodation and can support your wife in the UK.


It is best that you go to the Embassy as well, some things might need clarifying and you will be asked separately the question that caused the problem. Usually something simple.


Your wife will be asked for copies of correspondence from you. If you phone as well keep your phone bills and e-mails printed out.


Photocopy your passport, and all pages relevant to entry and exit from Philippines.


Copies of your bank statements for six months - preferably a year.


Copies of your wage slips for six months - preferably a year. If you have your P60 as well all the better.


Details of your accomodation in UK.


Details of money you have sent your wife/fiancee for support.


Divorce papers for all previous marriages if any.


Marriage certificate.


Your and her birth certificates.


Photographs of the wedding.


Other photographs of you together, even singly in the same place.


The questions are fair for genuine couples, believe me and either party should easily be able to answer them.


The visa lasts for a year, but must be used within six months of issue. After eleven months you can go to Lunar House, Wellesley Road, Croydon, and have it extended indefinitely, again I would go with your wife. Both the Embassy and the Home Office are first class for genuine couples, and I vote both the elite government service.


Oh as soon as your wife arrives in UK register her with a doctor, and write on the form from Philippines to UK.


Also obtain a National Insurance card for her from your local DSS office, she is allowed to work immediately if she so wishes.


I hope this helps.


Your wife must send the completed forms to the embassy with the money in payment. It takes around three months for a slot. Before then make sure she has a Filipino passport, I am afraid though that you will need a ';sworn affidavit of support'; to this end, you need to go to a Notary Public in UK for this. It will cost about 拢50 including cost of validation by Philippine Embassy in London.Any advice on obtaining uk visa for my future philippino wife?
