Hello from Cebu were the weather is hot....

I am over here in Philippines arranging my wedding when a friend asked me a few questions i could answer so i hope you can help.

He has just got engaged a few days ago and wants to marry over here in the Philippines but the problem is that due to a car accident a few years ago he has not been able to work so i told him going through the normal channels of a spouse visa and fiancee visa was a waste of time.I suggested that his fiancee applys for a job were we live in the uk and then maybe if possible he can marry her there.Also he wants to marry her before she applys to get a work visa which i thought would be a bad idea.I would be thankful if you could give me the best answer for him under these circumstances please...

Thanks,
john

Why do people want to complicate matters?

If he's on benefits in the UK, he can still bring her here on a fiancee visa as long as he can prove he can support her, and he has a few grand in the bank.
