Hi all,

I am glad to have stumbled into this great community, and quite excited to be a part of it. I am basically from Bangalore (India), and will be moving into Manila by end of April with my Spouse. She has been offered a long term opportunity by her organization (Northern Trust). Although we have been fortunate enough to travel quite a bit around the world, this is a essentially our first long term stay at a foreign location.

We are a bit anxious about Manila, but have been getting quite positive vibes so far. As I am relocating on Dependent Visa, one our concerns is my employment. Through my research I understand that Dependents are not permitted to work in Philippines. Are there any possibilities or legal opportunities for Dependents to be employed in Manila?

Apologize if I appear to be worked up in my introduction post. :P

regards,

Vikram

Hi Zoe,

Really appreciate your time in sharing the update. It is quite reassuring to know about Taguig City. We are also considering of looking for some condos in and around BGC, which is close to Northern Trust office. I will keep you posted once we are in Manila, so please stay in touch.

regards,

Vikram
