I’ve written quite a bit about this subject previously.
Two articles with some “meat” in them are here:
If you want to read them (and I encourage you to do so if you haven’t seen them before), then go ahead and click on the links, I’ll wait for you here.

Umm, this page you are reading right now. Or any page on this site.
I’m asking because I have software that tracks where people have visited, and I notice that two of the absolute least visited pages on this site are the FAQS page (that used to be a commonly understood acronym/abbreviation for “Frequently Asked Questions” and the Best Places Philippines page.
In some ways, years ago, I thought this would be the most important and helpful page on this site. Whenever someone would ask a question of common interest … such as say “How Long Can I Stay in the Philippines?” I would enter that question on the FAQS page along with a concise answer.
That’s what having a FAQS section is all about … people can visit there and get answers to their questions without wasting their time and mine in asig the same question over and over again.
I explained it here and even included a link for people to ask additional questions with just a single click.
Here I will list Philippine FAQS (and answers) as they come in. I’ll attempt to put them in some sort of order, but issues and opportunities arrive in random bursts, so many of these Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS) will as well. Got a question you don’t see “Asked and Answered” here already? “Shoot it to me” here: Contact Philly.
Apparently, this was a dumb idea, since no one ever visits or leaves additional questions.
Any suggestion?
I started this page a long time ago as a place where readers could see “their” place on the Philippines “on the map” so to speak.
Each blue pin on the map, when clicked on, shows the name of the reader who posted it as well as a capsule description as to why this might be the “best place in the Philippines” for you.
So many people have the question in their minds as to where they ought to move to in the Philippines … yet so few ever visit the map and have a look.
It’s a full-fledged link into Google Maps. You can do so much more than just look at some pins on a map.
For example, here’s what you see if you zoom in on my own pin on my home here in Marilao, Bulacan on Luzon.
Also, be sure to go to maps.google.com and try the “satellite view”.
For example, how would traffic be if I left mt home right now to drive to my local SM City Mall?
So what do you think? Why don’t people make more use of the map?
Why Can’t My Filipina Wife Get a Tourist Visa To The USA?
Updated and corrected to bring it up to date
This question comes up frequently. Often there is a lot of anger attached as a US citizen husband finds out that his lawfully married foreigner spouse can’t get a US B2 Visitor (Tourist) Visa, despite having all paperwork and immigration status documents in order.
But it doesn’t matter if you are angry, or even if I am angry in support of your position.
In many cases. the Tourist visa just ain’t going to happen. Why?
And it’s not likely to change any time soon.
Everything about the US Immigration system is geared to handle two things:

Art Schools in the Philippines.
This was originally published many years ago, but it still gets traffic. Obviously some of you are still searching for answers in this subject. I’m trying to “clean house”. There are well over 1000 articles here on PhilFAQS and I want to “clear out the deadwood”. Should I keep this, update it or send it to the trash?
A lot of people search for and ask me direct questions on Art Schools in the Philippines. Most art school candidates in the US never think of the Philippines when it comes to school but there can be some real advantages to attending school here. The Philippines is a world center of artistic talent, especially in the performing arts area.
