Hi.
Thank you for taking the time to read my question today and I really hope you are able to offer some help, any info at all would be greatly appreciated.
My girlfriend is Philippina and I am British, we are living in London at the moment although I am from Bournemouth. She has overstayed her tourist visa here but we would like to get her a permanent visa. We have been told we need to get married, can we get married in Philippines or does it need to be here? Does she need to go home first before making the application? What are the chances a permanent visa will be approved? Of course we would have no problem proving we are a real couple as we've been together 3.5 years.
We understand we will have to use a solicitor and that's ok but any advice you can offer would be incredible (I am just a housekeeper in a hotel).
Thank you in advance guys.
Dan
