@ 정의사도 님에게... 입양 얘기 하시는군요. 15세 미만인 경우 결혼할 필리핀 배우자가 입양해서 필리핀 국적을 취득하는 경우가 있지요. 그건 좀 많이 특별한 경우라...   일단 이민국에는 필리핀인과 결혼한 외국인의 자녀에 대한 비자는 아래와 같이 설명하고 있습니다. Children of foreign nationals married to Filipino nationals may now be granted permanent residence in the Philippines under Section 13(a) of the Philippine Immigration Act (PIA). On January 8, 2015, Secretary of Justice Leila De Lima approved Bureau of Immigration (BI) Memorandum Circular No. SBM-2015-001 allowing children of foreign nationals to acquire permanent residence based on the foreign parent’s marriage to a Filipino national. Under Section 13(a) of the PIA, the spouse or child of a Filipino may be granted permanent residence. It is, however, silent on whether a child of the foreigner spouse may be granted a similar status as that of the spouse. “The policy aims to clarify and fill the void in the law such that it is aligned with the State’s policy to protect the sanctity of the family”, said BI Commissioner Siegfred Mison. The permanent resident status under Sec. 13(a) of the PIA may be granted to the children of foreign nationals on the following conditions: (1) they are under 21 years old; (2) unmarried; and (3) accompanying or following to join their parent.
