FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Get quick answers to common questions about permanent visas in the Philippines.

What is the difference between SRRV and 13(a)?

SRRV is for retirees (age 35+) requiring a time deposit, while 13(a) is specifically for foreign spouses of Filipino citizens. SRRV offers more flexibility but requires a financial deposit.

How much deposit is required for SRRV?

The deposit varies: USD $20,000 for those 50+ with pension, USD $50,000 for those 35-49 without pension. Different tiers (Smile, Classic, Courtesy) have different requirements.

Can I work with a permanent visa?

SRRV holders need a separate AEP to work. 13(a) permanent residents can work in the Philippines but may still need an AEP depending on the employer's requirements.

Can my family be included in my application?

Yes, both SRRV and 13(a) allow inclusion of dependents. SRRV allows spouse and children under 21. 13(a) covers the applicant with separate applications for children.
