Yeah you're still missing the issue, no worries, I will repeat it clearly for you:

 

 

 Oh Dear, Listen My Friend, I have been on a 13a for 12 years, My wife has never once on this second card I am on been to or had to contact BI so so you understand and STOP digging your Hole any Bigger

That's nice, but your wife is presumably alive though.

The question you're still avoiding is what happens when a wife dies, and then it's time for the husband to renew a 13a, and list a petitioner.

 You obviously DO NOT Understand the 13a that is a permanent Visa you don't have to  renew that only the Icard

 Of course my wife is still alive and we enjoy a wonderful Marriage

Actually it's who you clearly do not understand and is repeating false information: 13a visa is only permanent provided the conditions of the visa are maintained, meaning a valid marriage with a Filipino citizen.

When you do the annual form, it asks for your civil status. A mandatory answer is required with a red asterisk.  Married, Widowed, etc. appear as options to select.

If an Expat was granted a 13A because they were married to a Filipina and that Filipina died then they should select widow. I know a guy this happened to and It red flagged him. He was told to downgrade to a 9a tourist Visa or apply for SSRV. .

IF YOU LIE.

If an Expat lies on the civil status then they are committing fraud. and the penalties in REPUBLIC ACT NO. 751 apply. "Any alien, or any parent or legal guardian of any alien, who files an application for registration containing statements known by him to be false.  Fine, Imprisonment, Deportation.

I'll rephrase it for you then. For those who wish to follow Philippine Immigration law, the 2024 Reporting Guideline is here. Guidelines state to complete the online registration (except for Jack Peterson who will live life his own way) LOL
