Hi, Kallen ... your visit visa is unlikely to have any adverse effect on the application you lodged yesterday (I mean, WHY would it?) so please try to relax ... good luck ... and to our friendly, online filipino/uk community.

Did VFS mention anything when you submitted the documents?
How about the bank statements and proof of income?
UKBA will expect most of these important supporting documents to be originals. Not copies.
UKBA may well ask you to submit originals. I would suggest you have your fiance send the originals to you by courrier in case you need to re-submit some documents under time pressures.

Ah ... ... I imagine you're referring to the correspondence between you. Well ...you've no need to worry on that score - because Embassy staff are fully aware of the difficulties involved in maintaining regular contact by normal post, and realise *email is the logical mode of long-distance communication. Indeed, *it's the method almost everyone [including myself] uses nowadays.

Hello. I seem to recall that a current forum member called Tone only submitted photocopies. Not certain there but you might want to check that out. And his application was recently successful. (Just tried to do a quick search for the posting but couldnt find it). However, as Terpe suggests it is probably a good idea to have your hubby send out by courier the originals of the key documents.

... I'd been under the impression you'd been talking about correspondence. Supporting documents, are a different "kettle of fish" altogether, however - and, for the MOST part, MUST be ORIGINALS - particularly the likes of Bank Statements and payslips!! I'm sorry I have to ask you this: Didn't you read the appropriate Guidelines before completing the online Application Form? Frankly, though, it surprises me that VFS hadn't appeared to notice this oversight when you presented your papers.
Hmm ... in the circumstances, it looks as if you'll be asked to provide originals - in which case, you'd be advised to ask your fiance to courier those to you asap as Terpe suggests. Equally, it might be a good idea, if you were to get in touch with the British Embassy in Manila to explain the situation. OK, it could delay your visa ... but better that, than risk having your application refused.

For the Visit Visa it is YOU who has to prove finances, etc .... whereas with the Marriage Visa it is your other half that MUST prove his finances, and therefore they require the originals. DHL charges £35 which is the cheapest and take 2-5 working days.

Just for the correctness of information for all readers, the UKBA website clearly indicates the documents required and whether originals, certified copies or photocopies.
Each application is different and is individually reviewed and assessed. Certainly there are cases of applicants using only copies of documents and being granted a visa. There are also cases where applicants have sent only copies and have been refused.
One of the objectives is to minimise risks and costs as far as possible.
My advice is to always follow the stated requirements.
