Re: Me and My Family
Went to BI today and I am none the wiser. Contacted another agent and he can process this extension for 25k. He tells me that BI will apply two penalties. A one off payment of between 15 - 25k. depending on the reason for extension. And another payment per month computed by BI. Guess that means ....is it near Xmas. Anyway, I will go it alone and send my application on Monday complete with contact details.

Re: Me and My Family
Sounds like a high price for an extension, I will ask a friend's son what he thinks is reasonable. He did my SRRV and my wife's citizenship for P10k and that included a bust with the my 13a visa due to wife being divorced. When do you need extension to start from. Shall PM feedback
19th March is the expiry date of my tourist visa. I omitted to mention that the first agents quote of 70k included two months charges and penalties. The second quote of 25k was the agents fees only.

It could be worse,P11.
Look at the mess Mr Holger Solager from Denmark has got himself into...His "Lovely Lady" and her equally "Lovely" family have taken all of his money,and he was stranded,penniless,during this pandemic in the Filis (as of October '20)..I wonder if he managed to make his way home.?

Sadly there are plenty of these cases where guys come over with cash in the pockets and hope in their hearts and the first one that smiles at them, gets to partake in the feast ....the feast that keeps on giving until said freshly arrived fellow has no more funds and then hes cast aside.
I dont post this in reference to Phil11 as he says he knew his blushing bigamist bitch bride for a long while before visiting these shores.....and with the aforementioned BritGrit he may yet survive.
But these fellows that just dont budget properly , that throw caution to the wind, that always says "theirs is different"... makes one wonder for the sanity of some people.
And the sad truth, if that if these previously pennielsss paupers came into pera ( money) they might just get on a plane over here and try to build back better.
Gents.. it aint going to be better till you learn both a lot more about this country and how to handle yourself in this country.

Raking the coals again. You have omitted the time when I had our house refurbished and I put her in charge of the spending. I was overseeing. Many times she rebuked the workers (family) for not producing receipts. Especially her father. She always made them go back for receipts. She also sacked one of the family for dragging out jobs so that they can earn more. That was not scamming. Furthermore, you forget that asking for money for family is a cultural norm here. As I have said the real scamming, deceit and lies came during the last year I was with her.

Re: Me and My Family
In my current situation, I happily donate some money now and again but its by choice , not because im asked to.
Yes in many situations it is the norm.And yes no one seems shy to ask for a favour or a loan , which will never be repaid. Certainly Ive been lucky but I wouldnt describe it as a cultural norm, although in your sutuation it became a norm.
There are some very well off people in this country and Im sure they have never ever asked for any money.

Yes and no ...when I was married my wifes family asked for money once and once only ( in 18 years ) and after the emergency was over they paid it back, in full.

Re: Me and My Family
In ALL social circles over there MONEY seems to the cause of many problems.....look at the trouble the Marcos family caused,and all because they took a little bit of public money just for some extra bread and milk...
