Short Trip Back to US

1 year ago
Well, it's been 4 months in Pototan, just outside of Iloilo City.

I am retired here but need to return to Boston for about 2 weeks to tend to some personal matters. I need to return, again for a couple of weeks to attend a wedding. I will be returning, both times, with my Filipina wife. As a result, I will have a Baikbayan visa upon my return, each time.

When I return in late April, I will apply for my 13a visa. The Balikbayan visa will allow me the time to secure my 13a without having to extend my tourist visa.

My wife (67 yrs of age) and I (70 yrs of age) have been married for 20 years and are retired in the Philippines.

I have been trying to learn some Ilonggo.

So, Palangga ta ang Philippines
