PaulNeb86 Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 Other than the costs involved which visa is the better choice for an expat married to a (once she gets is restored) Philippine/US citizen with a dual national child? Rather obvious that our child doesn't need to worry about a visa, nor does the wife once she visa her paperwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not, I did try searching for the topic before posting. Maybe it should be sticky? My research on the subject before I got on the plane to come here really wasn't very helpful. I could see advantages and disadvantages to both. That's why I'm asking the people that probably have experience. I do know I can stick with my current Balikbayan visa and make an annual visa run. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your current setup using the Balikbayan works then why change it? If you feel you must make a change then 13A is probably the best option all things being equal. By best I guess I mean most popular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walanapera Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 SRRV or 13A visa? Why not consider getting a Philippine citizenship as another option? On a personal note, I'm a 13A person who has to pay all of my back 13A Annual Fees whenever I return to the Philippines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with the right connections and right amount of money, I tend to believe that it can still be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
