Default Widow of British citizen with British son

I am a filipino, a widow to a british citizen and has a british citizen son. My son wanted to go the UK so I have applied for family permit from the Philippine British Embassy so I could take my son for a visit and possibly settle in UK if he likes it. ECO emailed me after a week or so to tell me to withraw my previous family permit application and apply for a visit visa and pay the necessary fees. I did that. Now, I got my visitor's visa approved. What if my son decides to stay and take his education in the UK? Can I also stay and be able to switch to another kind of visa or apply for a family permitagain? My visa expires 5 months. Should I let my visit visa expire and apply to settle as primary carer? Or can I apply anytime even with a valid visitor's visa? Would it really matter? Whats the best visa for me? I was on settlement spouse visa before in the UK with my husband until it expired and I came home as I was not aware that I could apply for ILR then. Its been 9 years since a last left the UK. I studied a degree in college in the PH after coming home without reapplying any form of visa until now. I need your help. What should I do?

Welcome to BE.

I see you have already posted in our UK Immigration forum. I'm sure you will get great advice from the people who hang out in that forum...especially BritInParis.

Please let me know if you run into any site related problems.
