Re: 13Quota Visa Much Better than SRRV
SRRV you need to invest your money here in the Philippines. If not your no longer a member. In 13quota they just need a Bank Certificate and Certificate of Inward Remittance. You can withdraw your money after you get the visa. Plus its only P310.00 annual report. Anyways its up to you folks.

Re: 13Quota Visa Much Better than SRRV
Once again if your a tourist you can extend your visa at an immigration office so many times and in time you will need the ACR card its easy to get.
If your getting married go for the 13a visa
If you don't want or need a wife but want to stay here a long time , look at SRRV.
QUOTA Visa well pay some agent and loose your money as its so hard to get

Re: 13Quota Visa Much Better than SRRV
Application for 13quota is different now, unlike before that you need to pay under the table even if you are not qualified. BI will evaluate the application and if not sufficient you get denied. Quota Visa is hard to get if you submit fake documents.
