Hi...Can You Help Me?
I am engaged to a filapino lady Im cagayan de oro, we are hoping to get married in August 2013. We have been engaged for 2 years and we spent 21 days together in cagayan de oro and camiguin island. I have met her parents whilst I was there.
My question is what requirements is there (philippines) for residency so I can stay after we get married. I am also looking to buy or establish a business.
Regards
Brian Friend

Once you are married you can apply to have a 13a Visa which will allow you permanent residency.Here is a link to the BoI's web site:http://www.immigration.gov.ph/
