Sure po. Thank you for the suggestion :)

Aww! Thank you :)

Hi Colin! Thank you for watching and appreciate your nice words. Your inputs are really valuable to those who are looking at raising their family in the UK as an option. Every family is different and unique. As for mine, we are thankful to be here in the UK - there are pros and cons but the pros definitely outweigh the cons. Im sure your daughter is lucky to have you as her father. God bless you and your family. :)

Hi Kabayan! Thank you for watching. Nag enquire ako Dati sa central london, mga 70 pounds per day. Sa nursery ng anak ko 62 pounds per day, south London yan. Ang mahal noh para akong nag papaaral ng college sa pinas hehe

Tama po. Nagmamahal na talaga ngayon. Hayst. Salamat po sana makabisita kayo sa bahay ko. Nag vovlog dn po ako hope to meet you ❤️

Hi John! Thank you for watching. I really appreciate that you feel that way about the Philippines. I love my country and it will always be my first home. I’ve mentioned the free benefits and said that we pay it in some form of contribution that’s why I don’t mind paying my taxes here. Unfortunately, I was also a tax payer in the Philippines for 20 years but I never enjoyed any of those benefits. I’m really hoping that someday the system will improve because Filipinos deserve better. My husband was born and raised here and went to UCL and Oxford University, God willing, thats the same kind of path we want for our daughter. Glad you mentioned about Tondo, because my family is from Tondo and I myself was born there and yes I also feel safe there. I agree that there are senseless crimes in the UK like I’ve seen in the news, which is unfortunately happening in any country. I feel blessed that we have found a neighbourhood in the Uk where we feel safe. And yes, Filipinos think highly and respect our elders. That’s the Filipino value we never want to lose and pass it on to our children. We believe it is possible as that is how my husband was raised and his siblings. You seem to know so much about the Philippines and love it there but you still like a foreigner. I’m sorry to hear about that but for sure you are always treated with our very warm hospitality. As for our child, hopefully she will never feel like a foreigner as she will be surrounded with families and friends both in Uk and in the Philippines. Thank you again for your feedback, much appreciated. Take care.

@@unitedkabayan1519 You raise very interesting points. The Philippines is not a poor country, but a poorly managed one, as the UK is now becoming. It wasn't always so. When I was a child the UK was a manufacturing hub, now we don't even produce our own toilet paper and once the banking sector relocates to Singapore/Far East that'll be it. Our healthcare is appalling and consists of dying on a waiting list. The UK has 2.5 hospital beds/1000 (Germany has 8, Belarus 11.. BMJ Sept 2020) but we keep deluding ourselves it is good as we lie on trolleys in corridors, trying to find a nurse. (...and the only good ones are Filipinas!) In the Philippines if I need to see a doctor, I pop along when it suits me, same day, pay Php600 and get an appointment. Here.. no chance, yet I've already paid £1,000's for the last 30 years! I have a teenage daughter with Down syndrome and we never received an ounce of support or assistance in the UK. None, hindi, nada, zip. Just endless pointless meetings. In the Philippines we got a PWD card from the Barangay first month. We go anywhere in Paranaque she is treated like a Queen. Front of any queue just like the Seniors, immediate discount at Jollibee & McDonalds. We even get a weekly grocery discount at ShopWise and during the pandemic officials visited home to give her rice & a monthly allowance of Php500!! In the UK she's gawped at as a freak, in Sucat the kids treat her as an equal. In the UK, sweet FA. The Welfare State is a complete myth that only foreigners still believe exists! In 1970 there were US$4 : £, now about US$1.2 : £. We just survive on a past. We used to have a good unarmed police force, now totally rotten. We used to have honest politicians, now corrupt to the core. Once our schools were held in high esteem, now they are just places where parents dump kids and teachers struggle with riot control. Bright kids can't progress. The Philippine Science High Schools (like our old Grammar Schools) easily outclass anything in the UK. But don't talk to me about racism... as only Filipinos can attend! Try doing that in the UK. I walk down any High Street in the Philippines and it is full of colour, street food, smiling traders, laughter and bustle. In the UK, boarded up derelict shops or Oxfam outlets, vomit, graffiti, miserable beggars and the risk of getting stabbed. In my birth town (Aldershot) few now speak English. No, you can keep it, I'll sit on the beach on Carabao Island catching the warm breeze with a Tanduay & calamansi, a natter with Tatay & Nanay, and watch my kids play happily in the sand. The UK is not a democracy but an elected dictatorship, we have an unelected Head of State from a dodgy Germano-Greek family, one of whom is a nonce and the next in line talks to cabbages. Almost our entire cabinet are non-indigenous (try that in the Philippines!) and even our useless PM is actually an American. The English have no representative body at all, whilst Scotland, Wales & NI do... now do you see why the English are fed up and leaving in droves? At my last Bristol alumni reunion over a third now lived abroad. On a 'happiness' scale the Philippines ranks 3rd (Gallup Poll) way, way ahead of the UK. .. and has one of the fastest growing economies in ASEAN. Next time you visit a UK Mall.. count the smiles! Jeez.. I could go on!

@@johnbobson1557 Hello John. I’m a Filipino American. Dual citizen of the Philippines and the US. Thanks for sharing your view of the UK. If I could live in London for a year, from the looks of it I’d want that compared to here in the US. Sorry that you’re in that situation. I’m not a history expert at all. Filipinos can be discriminating but that’s primarily from their own ignorance. They are a highly indoctrinated bunch. There is so much corruption in government. Media deception. Based on your comment I think you understand well. Luzonians rule the country in numbers. Tribal clashes are ignored in politics. The invisible struggle for power and control nobody acknowledges. It’s not merely political lines. There is nepotism, oppression and lies. Yes on the whole they’re harmonious and cooperative for the common good. The Spanish and Americans integrated a one Filipino people/identity without regard to how the locals may feel. Without a referendum. Americans historically saw them as sub-human anyway. As offensive as that sounds. The catholic institution there is very powerful. Trust me the US is not a great place. In fact the whole Anglosphere is getting worse not just the UK. I haven’t been to the UK and I always wanted to go. Not all places in the US is like a Hawaiian paradise. I want to see what London is like. And all of the EU. I believe Germany looks like a nice place to live.

Mas maigi sa Pinas palakihin anak nyo KUNG May kamaganak kayo na May MORAL SUPPORT AT MALASAKIT. Otherwise you have no choice Hwag Lang kalimutan NOW is the time to talk to her in Tagalog/English at disciplinarian - ipa liwanag kung Bakit kayo Galit sa kanya pag matapos ng umiiyak. Ang mga bata dito yong gusto nila masosonod ikaw pa pagagalitan! Walang Best World really para sa bata kung Hindi natoto ng respetuhin magulang. Kaya karamihan dito isa Lang anak o ayaw manganak.

Hello po! Thank you for watching. May disability living allowance po. Eto po ang link for the government website - www.gov.uk/disability-living-allowance-children. Another useful link that you can use as reference - www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/benefits-and-money/benefits/benefits-you-can-get/benefits-for-autistic-children

Hello Livy! Thank you for watching. Hope you are well :)

Hi Joyce, thank you for subscribing. Yes po . Your child can avail of the benefits as long as your child has visa to stay in the UK kahit Hindi pa British citizen ang bata pati magulang. Thanks po.

@@unitedkabayan1519 thank you for the info =)

Hello po! As a mom, I would say na it’s better na kasama mo ang anak mo kung May opportunity para she will grow up with your guidance. Yung environment dito iba iba depende sa area, but generally safe naman. My husband grew up here and ok naman his experience thats why we are raising our daughter here as well. I hope it goes well for you and your daughter. All the best!

Hi Yhanie! Thank you for watching. To purchase a property in the Uk, you need to have a deposit/downpayment of at least 10 percent of the purchase price. You also need to qualify to a bank loan/mortgage if you will not pay in cash. Remember in shared ownership, to don’t fully own the property. We will try to make a video about purchasing a property in the uk soon. Hope your plans will eventually materialise. Good luck :)

Hello po! Thank you for subscribing. Basta po may referral ng GP , May government support po. Si Lauren po delayed in speech. Wait listed po kami sa speech therapy Kasi May referral ng nursery nya. Medyo Matagal Lang mo ang antayan. Wala pa rin kami schedule. May mga private doctors po, Pero sa private May bayad po.

That’s awesome! Exciting time ahead :)

Hello ! Thank you for watching. Yes free pa rin po for high school unless you will go private :)

Hi Rania! Kapag family visa, easier sa immediate family - husband and children. Kapag extended family, mas mahirap ang approval. Case to case basis. You need to establish proof na you are the only surviving/reliable relative who can look after them. Thanks

@@unitedkabayan1519 I see thank you po for answering my query 😊 ingat po lagi and God Bless

Hi Jessie! Kahit Hindi pa British citizen ang parents Basta your family has visa to stay in the UK , your kids get free education.

Hi May! Sa bata Lang po free. Kapag adult May bayad na po and medyo mahal po ang dentist dito. Mahilig din po mag English tea ang mga british which could also be a reason for the stain on the teeth :)

Hello kabayan! Northern Ireland is part of United Kingdom kaya same benefits po. As long as your family has legal papers to stay in UK, kahit Hindi citizen, you are entitled to same benefits po. :)

Wow tlga po. Maraming salamat po sa feedback. Also can I ask another question, my son is 4yo po now. Need n po b namin siya kuhanan NG slot Sabi po kc mahirap dw kumuha NG slot s schools totoo po b Un? Nabasa ko po kc s isng mommy group NG mga nsa UK baby plng dw kinukuhanan na nla NG slot s school since mhrap dw po kumuha and by slot nga dw po. I hope you can give me insights about this po. Thanks a po po mommy. :)

@@joannadomingo9993 No worries. Kung for proper school na, ang alam ko government ang mag assign kung Saan ang school ng anak mo. Priority school is yung pinaka Malapit sa location nyo. If walang available nearest to you place, they will find somewhere na Malapit. Baka yung sinasabi ng friend mo is for nursery or parang day care, limited nga Lang ang slot dun and you do it on your own. Pero kung proper school na, government will help you find school for your child.

Eto Po ang benefits for blind person in uk. You can ask someone to have a look for you www.nhs.uk/conditions/vision-loss/

Hi po. Does this need na maging citizen po muna nila ako before I’m qualified to apply?

@@sheloveshim1293 If provided po ng public fund, kelangan Po maging citizen muna. Kung Hindi pa po citizen and still under family visa, health care benefits ng NHS po ang pwede ka-avail. Kasama Po Kasi sa bayad sa visa ang NHS - national health service.

Hi Joyce! That’s a good idea. I will do vlog about spouse visa next time. I am still under spouse visa and I am able to avail the medical benefits. In fact when I gave birth to my daughter, Wala na akong binayaran sa hospital . Hindi pa rin ako nag wowork that time Pero naka avail ako ng medical benefit. If you look at the visa fee na binayaran natin, kasama na dun ang NHS fee kaya mahal ang spouse visa natin and entitled tayo sa NHS benefits :)

@@unitedkabayan1519 wow nice. Thank you so much sa response. Looking forward to more videos from you guys =)

@@joycepaalan2322 thank you Joyce for the support :)

Hi Lailame! Thank you for watching! Sure, Ano yung tanong mo?

Ask ko lang po mam. Husband ko kasi mag work sa UK abd then after 3 mos susunod na ako. Balak ko po kasi e sama anak ko. Ano po dapat gawin para po ma sama ko anak ko papunta dyan? Salamat po.

@@lailamerobillo8654 Hi Lailame! Glad to know that you are considering to raise your family here in the UK. Your husband can sponsor both you and your child to come to UK with him. Important is he has proof that he can support you and your child. Kelangan din paghandaan ang visa fee per person medyo may kamahalan. Pwedeng Ikaw muna ang kunin ni husband, or kung kaya ng budget, pwede Sabay na kayo ng anak mo. For detailed requirements to apply for family visa, here is the government link that you can check. www.gov.uk/uk-family-visa

@@unitedkabayan1519 yes po maam ako po all expense naman po ng company ng husband ko lahat2 na process. Yung anak ko lng po ang hindi kasali so need ko po malaman if magkano po kaya gagastusin if ever yung anak ko dadalhin ko din pag punta ko.

@@unitedkabayan1519 i hope to meet you in person po pag maka punta na kami dyan. Hehe thanks po.

Hi Dong! Thank you for watching. Meron din naman mga ayuda, Hindi nga Lang talaga sapat. Sad but true. :(

Hi James! Thank you for watching. Totoong May Ganyan. Pero madalas kelangan talaga mag english dahil kung Hindi mahihirapan kaming makipag usap dito kaya kelangan mag adjust. English ang main language sa labas ng bahay at sa Trabaho. Ibat iba ang lahi difo, kahit sila kelangan matuto mag english. At sa katagalan. Nakakasanayan na pati ang accent. Pero syempre Hindi pa rin nakakalimutan ang tagalog. Hindi yabang ang english kapag nasa ibang bansa. Parte sya ng adjustment para maka survive ka abroad.

Hindi po ata yabang yan. Nasa English country ka syempre normal lang mag english ka. Option mo nalang yun kung anong language gagamitin mo since alam mo naman pareho. Wag nalang panoorin if you cannot understand the language👌🏼

Ogag din to...kailangan mo mag English para matoto KC ang hirap Ng accent nila dito..bunganga nito pasuin KO yan..

@@forallgamers8497 eh di pumunta ng saudi tpos magpaarabic arabic ka magpasharmuta ka haiwen kc hirap din mag arabic .
