RomanceRe: I Just Can't Get Over My Ex After Years Of Breakup. by lightest(m): 10:38pm On Oct 01, 2020
Alexgman1:
Its up to two years since i broke up with my ex (ALEX MARVEY). But uptil now I haven't gotten over her. She has moved on & deeply in love with someone new who she profess to be engaged to.
She has blocked me on every social media platforms but yet i still find a way to stalk her. Following her updates & uploads using a different and fake id.

Whenever we cross paths on the road she ignores me like we never knew before.
Despite the fact that it was her that messed up and did all the lies & cheating, yet i still forgave her for everything she did.

How can i move on and let go of her totally & for good because anytime i and my new girl are eating, walking, bathing & romancing i do imagine my ex.
i feel u guy, but the truth is that u really love her. u are only like this because she was the one that broke up with u.

thats is the fact bro. All u need to do is to delete all her contact u have and see ur new girlfriend as a better part of u.

don't compare them together .

i have being there, mine was 9 months before i got over it bro.

take care bro.

Hi Guys

I have a couple of questions

1. I am already a Tier 2 Visa holder, and my wife is applying to join me. Do we need just £630 as the proof of funds or £1,575 (£945+£630)?

2. Would it affect my application one's bank account dips after the application has been made?

Please help @giselle237 @Justwise
find out if ur company od A rated. if it is, u don't need an acct. just write them for a supporting letter that they will make available the said amount for ur wife whe she arrives even though they will not give u.

they might make u sign an agreement with them that they will not make the money available.

but if not A rated, u need the whole money mentioned.

but still hope for more advice from our sseniors

[quote author=GeeCee01 post=93259316]I will advise those who submitted their application prior to lockdown to visit tls contact. A close relative submitted passport in March and was expecting the pick up mail. After many days of no information, out of frustration, we visited tls yesterday (Tuesday) only to discover that the passport is ready for pick-up.

Prior to this, we had sent many mails even using the paid mail service last week and they told us to wait for 15 working days that our complaint was being escalated.

This may be relevant.

mine is dependant visa, could this be applicable to me too. but if by 31st August i did not see anything i will go there to make enquiry..

thanks so much once again

My guess is that you have probably joined the replacement vignette queue. Maybe your vignette got expired during lockdown and it has to be replaced
i pray so

According to ukvi, a decision has been made on my application since a long time, but they've refused to send it to VAC.
do paid enquiry if decision has been taking on it they will do escalation for passport return.

It is a tough time with many people whose application were submitted for review in the month of March. After 5 Months, people are still waiting and hoping to get their passport returned with Visa granted. I submitted my application March 16 shortly before lockdown. Sometimes in the Month of May I sent a mail to UKVI through a paid service and got a reply that my passport is safe and secure. Recently, I sent a reminder and was informed am going to get escalated attention and should expect response in 15 working days and the next day I got another message from SITEL which I attached here for information. I will like people with similar experience to share what outcome they got from the process.
they have not made decision on ur application.

Application transferred to DMC or to VAC?
u can mail ukvi for paid enquiry and if there is decision on ur application they will escalate it to return passport.

You don't have to pay a penny. I used my dependant time and date and i didn't pay a dime. As long as there's an appointment for that day and time, you're not supposed to pay.
doubt this info, I was asked to pay 42k if i want to do do biometric same day with my kids and i didn't have such money at hand.

hence i did mine on the following day which was my normal date for biometric.

any walk in is 42k no mercy

Good Evening All,

I submitted my application in March got a survey questionnaire in April (but was skeptical in answering the questions) lockdown took over, after lockdown no response from Tls as to status update.
I went today for collection of passport, Visa approved after 10 years UK ban.

I have benefitted from nairaland alot, since 2014 especially in the US section.

My candid advice is to read from scratch, take notes, learn from others,do the right thing and pray.

Hardwork pays off.

Thank you JESUS � nara ekene mo �
pls, whag type od visa did u applay for? wirh ur claims TLS did not mail or called u.

we did applied the same date and am still expecting my visa.

thanks for the update eagerly awaiting ur reply
