tourist visa for my boyfriend HELP!!!

[chubiebu]

ello guys,

I am a permanent resident in Winnipeg, I've been here for almost 2 years now. Working as a LPN in a hospital. I had a vacation in Philippines last February and came back on March, i stayed there for a month. i have a boyfriend and we've been together for more than 2 yrs and he is in the Philippines. Now I'm 3 months pregnant My boyfriend and I we're planning to get him a tourist visa. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a work right now, because before i went home last February he resigned from his work because he was planning to go to Singapore to work. And now, since I am pregnant, he decided instead of going to Singapore, he just wanted to come here and be with me when i give birth on November. I'm planning to send him a letter of invitation. My question is:

1. Is there a chance that he can get a tourist visa before I give birth?

2. Can we get married here?

3. How can we satisfy the Immigration Officer that he's going back to the Philippines?

One thing, If we can't get married here, In order to satisfy the IO that he's going back home, can we say to the IO that after I give birth, my baby and I will be going home to the Philippines with him, when his tourist visa expire, and then get married there? Coz that is the other option we have if we cant get married here.

what is the best thing to do, in our situation? please help..

thank you

Because he doesn't have a job, unless he has significant assets (property) in the Philippines, it's highly unlikely that a VO will approve a visitor's visa for him.

Perhaps your best bet is to go home, get married, and come back and sponsor him as your spouse.

Hi,

Like rjessome said, it will be very unlikely that your boyfriend will get a visitor visa, especially without having a job... if you still want to try, perhaps you can have plans made to have your wedding in the Philippines. You could show receipts of the reception venue and everything else to prove that he will be returning to the Philippines for your wedding, and you too and the baby will be going as well. It may help to greatly improve his chances.

Good luck!
