Sounds kind of sketchy
Sounds kind of sketchy

Man, it sounds like you've never even been to the Philippines. Do yourself a favor and don't make any hasty decisions until you've been there at least twice. Do your research, reach out to some foreigners living there for advice, look into different areas, and dig deep into visa requirements, the real cost of living, safety, and so on. Don't get me wrong, I'm moving there myself in March 2027. But I've also made 3 separate trips there and done everything I just suggested over the past 3 years. Don't move there just because it's "cheaper." You'll quickly run into a culture that's completely different from what you're used to. If you go, go with a purpose.

Lawyers tell people what they want to hear. Unethical? Sure, but that's par for the course here. I can't blame them for taking advantage of people being stupid.
Yes, you can easily buy and set up another country's eSIM while you're in the Philippines. Since eSIM installation works entirely over the internet rather than through physical SIM delivery, where you are when you set it up doesn't matter. What you need for setup A stable Wi-Fi connection: You need to be online in the Philippines to download the cellular profile to your phone. An unlocked, eSIM-compatible phone: Make sure it isn't locked to a local Philippine carrier. An eSIM provider app or QR code: Providers like Airalo, Maya Mobile, Nomad, and Holafly let you buy travel eSIMs from anywhere through their apps or websites. How to do it 1. Buy the plan: Purchase the eSIM package for your destination country on the provider's app or website. 2. Install the profile: iOS: Go to Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM and scan the QR code (or install directly through the provider's app). Android: Go to Settings > Network & Internet (or Connections) > SIMs > Add eSIM and scan the QR code. 3. Adjust settings: Give the new line a label (e.g. "Travel Data") and keep data roaming OFF on that line until you actually arrive in the destination country. Keep your main local line on for calls and texts if needed. Does that help? You can also port your overseas number while you're already in the Philippines AI has all the answers
These people really meet some amazing folks ❤️
I'm rich, buddy.

I'm on T-Mobile and haven't had any problems
Damian, who makes minimum wage, is watching this insane declaration unfold: ☹️.
Meth users don't snort meth. They smoke it, inject it, or swallow it. And Grab drivers can't afford a cocaine habit. Sounds like you're pinning your own private life on other people. Hand them a tissue and see if they blow.
For US veterans, #1 is Tricare.
It's always the orange ones doing that.
If the Tello line is still 'on', it'll keep searching for signal. That eats the battery.
I'm Canadian and take a few of the typical heart and cholesterol pills the over-60 crowd takes. If I stick to generics, I pay less than I do in Canada with my 20% deductible and covered health plan. Three huge benefits: -usually no prescription needed -zero dispensing fees -no limit on how much you buy (I've bought a full year's supply)
Okay, that's a wake-up call I could get behind, as long as it's guaranteed!

There's no minimum stay. If you're not in the country at the time of the Annual Report, you have 30 days after you come back to do it. Every time he leaves, he'll pay the ECC-B at the airport (3,380 pesos). His ACR-I card has to be valid at the time of departure.
Just FYI — apostilling your US documents is optional. You can also use the US Embassy or Consulate notarial service, which I found much easier and cheaper.
Cat owners: Yep, that's right
