Migration to the Philippines is on the rise with foreign nationalists arriving every year such as single men, families, students, business men, spouses, fiance's and fiancee's.

When you make a move to the Philippines, you have to be prepared that the government wants to cash in on a good piece of the pie and foreigners are certainly making a huge dent in all of this.

Your either going to pay the visa extension fees ongoing every 59 days, or your going to file to become a Permanent Resident?

In most cases I would highly recommend going the route of applying for the 13a Resident Visa also known as the Permanent Resident status. Depending on what your status is in the Philippines will be a determining factor on what you must do to adjust your status?
