Hi ben4dolfin,

Welcome to °µÍø½ûÇø!

Have you tried to contact the America Embassy to get some information?

Try also to post your questions on the Philippines forum.

Good luck,

Hi

My recommendation.
Do not marry her in the Philippines.
You may apply for a fiance visa assuming you know the person well.
Once you obtain this you will have 90 days to get married.
Only catch may be that you are a US resident. Not sure how this going to work out. You may need to check this out with the CIS.
If you are a Citizen, the process will be much easier.
Ladies from the Philippines are very nice, pretty,smart and typically will have a College Degree, which makes it easier for them to adjust well in the US.
Like your choice however,
All the best.
