How to obtain resident permit or long term visa for Philippines by Arthas
Hello; I would like to come and search for job or business opportunities in Philippines but i can only stay 21 days in Philippines with tourist visa. My nationality is Turkish. Is there any other way to extend this duration before or after i go to ...
The tourist stay is now 30 days, not 21. You can apply at the embassy in your country for a tourist visa for 56 (maybe 60 days now). You can apply for an extension once you are there and running out of time. One word to the wise, though, the ... Read More

How is that possible? Are you saying that your monthly expenses of $2000 allows you, your lady and a child to live like royalty in the USA? Only David Blaine can do something like that, because that is one heck of a magic trick! That includes ... Read More

Can you please elaborate on "nil" when you mentioned the cost for education? Do you mean that if you wanted to attend school there as a foreigner it is for free? Read More

Yes, good advice. I am so surprised at how so many men behave like teenagers when they meet a woman in the Philippnes. Grown men experiencing "puppy-love", so trusting and naive to think they will build a utopian nest with their young ... Read More

My suggestion: concentrate on doing something with your life where you are. Stabilize yourself economically and build on a financial plan, with an eye towards the future to living in the Philippines. You need money, a significant amount to form a ... Read More

Please do yourself a favor and forget the idea of investing significant money in the Philippines. My friend, you will stand a very good chance of losing it all. Doing business in the Philippines is not a good idea. The red-tape is horrendous and ... Read More

Good for you that you are content where you are and have a loving companion. Yes, I had a pinay gf for 11 years and we had a wonderful relationship. She passed on, otherwise we would have been together still; but I have been dating another pinay ... Read More

You seem to have good judgement in your approach to living abroad. Your thinking is similar to mine. I move about like a nomad, thinking that if I wake up and say to myself, hey, I really like this place and don't want to leave, then I just ... Read More

Maybe you should open up a Diet Spa: you won't have to do anything but let the clients hang out on the grounds, and there won't be any place for them to go. Just keep them walking! Hahaha. The only places in the Philippines that I do not ... Read More

Great information. I like that strategy. It depends on the province you are in, I guess. The values are different. What about security? How do you find your security situation where you are living, Tommieboy? Read More

Good thinking. I had the same thought. Set up so you keep your potential loss to a minimum. But I don't think it is a good idea- at least for me- to think of even buying like that unless I had a baby with the girl and put it all under the ... Read More
