My (Spanish) NLV Appeal

 My (Spanish) NLV Appeal

So, I am going to appeal the 9th June 2025 rejection of my (Spanish) non-lucrative (residence) visa (NLV) application. I expect my appeal to be physically in the Spanish Consulate General in London, England by 7th July 2025.

Below is a Google Translate translation of the paragraph in the visa denial letter that states why the visa has been denied:

"After examining the documentation in the file, the applicant states in a letter submitted with the application his intention to seek work in Spain. Therefore, this Consulate General has no guarantee that the applicant will not work in Spain, a circumstance that prevents the processing of a non-lucrative residence visa."

Below is the actual Spanish language paragraph in the visa denial letter that states why the visa has been denied:

"Examinada la documentación obrante en el expediente, el solicitante manifiesta en un escrito presentado con la solicitud, su intención de buscar trabajo en España, con lo que este Consulado General no tiene garantía de que el solicitante, no vaya a ejercer actividad en España, circunstancia que impide la tramitación de un visado de residencia no lucrativa."

Below is the actual paragraph in my Letter of Intent that I submitted as part of the NLV application to which the Consulate General reacts: "the applicant states in a letter submitted with the application his intention to seek work in Spain."

It is in Spanish regulations that any time after the first year of the NLV (successfully completed) that an application can be made (to the Spanish authorities) to change the NLV to a working visa if the NLV holder has a Spanish full-time employment contract, with a compliant employer, and that the salary is Spains national minimum wage (or higher).

I am hoping that this issue is just a case of 'lost in translation'. If it is not, what could it be? Malice? Crime? Other anomaly?

Monday 7th July 2025: My NLV appeal is still not at the Consulate. Why? It has been very difficult and time consuming to put together the appeal. What I have done is sent the five pages of the appeal to a sworn translator approved by the Consulate and I hope to collect them on Wednesday 9th July 2025. I received the NLV denial letter on Saturday 14th June 2025 so I have until Monday 14th July 2025 to ensure my NLV appeal is at the Consulate. 

I have over one hundred real friends in this World. They all know people I don't know and have friends I am not friends with etcetera. I wonder if any of these friends of mine can ensure that my NLV appeal is successful? (1) I meet all the criteria for the NLV. (2) I have no intention of working illegally in Spain. (3) The NLV denial letter said I said in a document that I intended to seek work in Spain but I in fact said I might work in year 2 onwards if the visa could be changed - Spanish law does allow this. As previously said, I am dumbfounded. If this is not a 'lost in translation' case then what could it be? Bribery? Malice? Psychopathic? Ego related? Abuse of power? breach of trust? If this is not a 'lost in translation' case then surely it is a criminal matter? And if it is not a 'lost in translation' case then surely the fitness for purpose of those working in the Consulate should be questioned because making the wrong life-changing decision could be a life-destroying decision.

Sunday 13th July 2025: I believe my visa appeal documentation is physically in the Spanish Consulate in London but I am not 100% sure because the Royal Mail tracking does not indicate that it has been delivered but I phoned the Royal Mail and they told me that the package was at a PO Box centre that the Spanish Consulate uses. Will I need to consider escalating this to judicial review in the courts in Madrid? Hopefully within a month from now there will be conclusive news about this visa. Logic says that I will be granted the visa.

Sunday 20th July 2025: No formal update to my Spanish NLV appeal yet except for what I believe has happened from 'keeping my ear to the ground'. I believe the Spanish Consulate is reconsidering my application but that they have not decided yet. That's all.

Thursday 7th August 2025: BAD NEWS. I sent the NLV appeal to the Spanish Consulate in London using Royal Mail 24hr Tracked service. I dispatched it on Thursday 10th July at 0447hrs. It consisted of about 20x A4 sheets of paper in a bubblewrap envelope suitable for holding A4 sheets of paper. I measured the envelope and it seemed to be within the Royal Mail Large Letter dimensions. On Saturday 12th July after seeing the tracking information had not shown it had been delivered I phoned Royal Mail Customer Services and I was told they believed the Spanish Consulate had collected it from a PO Box at the Royal Mail Jubilee Mailing Centre in London. On Sunday 3rd August I read an email from the Spanish Embassy asking me for a receipt for my appeal because I had emailed them requesting an update on my NLV appeal. I had not received a receipt. The bad news is the Royal Mail had not delivered the package containing the NLV appeal (and the Spanish Consulate had not collected it from a PO Box at the Royal Mail Jubilee Mailing Centre in London). Unbeknown to me since Friday 18th July the Royal Mail had been holding the package claiming unsufficient postage had been paid. ? The deadline for my NLV appeal was Monday 14th July. Please bear in mind that I measured the bubblewrap envelope containing my NLV appeal to make sure it was within the Royal Mail Large Letter dimensions (and it was obviously less than 1kg). I paid for a Royal Mail 24hr Tracked service Large Letter. On Monday 4th August I phoned Royal Mail Customer Services and I was told that a computer or piece of machinery might have made an error here (resulting in the package being held). ? I was also told that the previous Royal Mail Customer Service Agent of 12th July was correct to tell me that the package was delivered to a PO Box within the Royal Mail etcetera. ? On 6th August I emailed the Spanish Embassy proving that I dispatched the NLV appeal in such a way that it would reach the Spanish Consulate in London by the deadline and proving that since 18th July the Royal Mail had been holding the package. What now?

Tuesday 19th August 2025: On Wednesday 13th August I received the package containing my Spanish NLV appeal back from the Royal Mail with a sticker on claiming that not enough postage had been paid, and no reason for this was given. I had purchased a Royal Mail 24hr Tracked service label online from the Royal Mail costing £3.60 - this was for a Large Letter weighing up to 1kg. I measured the envelope before sending it and I thought it was okay, would go through the Royal Mail system as a Large Letter. There was no need to weigh it because it contained approximately 15-20 A4 sheets of paper ie obviously much less than 1kg. On Thursday 14th August I took the returned package to the local Post Office and I asked if it could be sent as a Large Letter. A manager took the package and pushed it through the Large Letter slot in the official Post Office perspex letter guide. The package slid back and forth freely through the Large Letter slot, and the manager said yes it could be sent as a Large Letter.

So, now I am considering legal action against the Royal Mail for my financial losses incurred, which are in the region of £2,500 - £4,000.

And the Spanish visa? I believe I will need to apply again, I should know for sure by Saturday 23rd August. 

Monday 1st September 2025: I will need to apply for the Spanish NLV again, and I have very recently had a free consultation with an agency that specialises in helping with specific visa applications, and in a few days I will be in another consultation but this time a paid consultation and I will know more at the end of this consultation.

Criminals of America

 Criminals of America

Saturday 10th May 2025: There's a woman in the USA that I affectionately with tongue-in-cheek refer to as 'Kimberly Krolldollar' that has been coming to my attention a few times a year in recent years. I also refer to her as a Criminal of America. To date she has served a small number of terms in prison, but these punishments have not had the desired affect. 

!!UNDER CONSTRUCTION!!

You see, she helps Harold Branson, she commits crimes with him. Harold Branson, the World’s worst criminal, the World’s poorest man, the World’s worst schizophrenic, the World’s worst case of delusions of grandeur etc etc. In early May 2025 I became aware that Kimberly Krolldollar was, again, helping Harold Branson with his incessant crimes. 

Does Kimberly Krolldollar have a probation officer? Can the police that have previously arrested and charged her arrest and charge her again? Can the judges that have previously been involved with sending her to prison get involved and look into her persistent criminal offending some of which she is doing with in conjunction with Harold Branson? This is a matter of urgency. I would deal with it personally but my circumstances prevent this.

I believe that Kimberly Krolldollar went wrong in her fifteenth year of life but at the end of the day - you do the crime, you do the time.

My NLV Application

My NLV Application 

Today, 30th April 2025, in London, England, I formally apply for my NLV for Spain. I meet all the criteria for the NLV but this does not mean my application will be accepted, or does it? I mean, there is some ambiguity here. Collating all the advice, information, and criteria for the NLV it is implied that if you do meet the criteria your NLV application will be accepted. Time will tell. So, there is a maximum of three months from today in which I must be given a decision, but the decision could be given in as little as a few weeks. My main concern is Andrew Branson's alias 'Lester Gray's' antecedents. ? What to do? There is little or nothing I can do but maybe, just maybe, there are people out there that can see through Andrew Branson's alias 'Lester Gray's' antecedents, and everything else that is wrong.

Saturday 3rd May 2025: My NLV application, ie all the required documents etc, is now in the Spanish Consulate General in London, England, and it has been since yesterday. Because of how wrong it is, it might be impossible for certain authorities in Europe (and possibly elsewhere) to not get involved. One of my concerns is that other persons in Europe (and possibly elsewhere) would get involved if they knew about the application but that they don't know about the application. Heading my concerns is Andrew Branson's alias 'Lester Gray's' antecedents, and the possibility of the NLV application being rejected solely because of these, and considering that in October 2023 Andrew Branson alias 'Lester Gray' was jailed for life it would not be healthy to perceive me as him. So, if you know that someone would get involved in this NLV application if they knew about it and you know they don't know about it please act appropriately. Thanks.

Saturday 7th June 2025: No update on my NLV application unless you include the fact that it has been with the Spanish Consulate in London, England for 5 weeks now. I was hoping for an answer after 3 weeks because I meet the criteria probably about 1.5x over, plus I have the totally unencumbered house, but no answer despite all this. 3 weeks is, apparently, the minimum time it takes for them to process the application. 5-6 weeks is, apparently, the average time it takes for them to process the application. I am glad I am not a nail-biter. But after all, this they can take up to 3 months to process the application (12 weeks or 3 calendar months??). 

Thursday 12th June 2025: Today I received a text message informing me that the passport is being returned to me. I have no further information about whether or not the visa has been granted. Hopefully within a week I will know if the visa has been granted.

Monday 16th June 2025. On Saturday 14th June 2025 I learned that my application for a Spanish Non-Lucrative Visa (NLV) had been rejected. Please read on.

Advice for applying for a visa includes recommendation to be honest and transparent. So, I was. Below is a paragraph from the Letter of Intent that I submitted to accompany the visa application (I have obscured company names etcetera):

This paragraph, in Spanish, extracted from the Spanish Consulate's NLV rejection letter details the reason for rejection: "Examinada la documentación obrante en el expediente, el solicitante manifiesta en un escrito presentado con la solicitud, su intención de buscar trabajo en España, con lo que este Consulado General no tiene garantía de que el solicitante, no vaya a ejercer actividad en España, circunstancia que impide la tramitación de un visado de residencia no lucrativa."

This is the Google translation of the above paragraph from Spanish to English: "After examining the documentation in the file, the applicant states in a document submitted with the application his intention to seek work in Spain. Therefore, this Consulate General has no guarantee that the applicant will not work in Spain, a circumstance that prevents the processing of a non-lucrative residence visa."

Below is the extracted main body of an email I received from a Spanish lawyer today:

Thank you for your question. Yes, that’s essentially correct. Under Spain’s current rules you can convert a Non-Lucrative Visa into an employment permit when you renew it after the first year, provided you meet these requirements:

• One year of legal residence in Spain under the NLV

• Full-time employment contract (typically 40 h/week) with a Spanish employer

• Minimum salary at or above the Spanish Interprofessional Minimum Wage

• Your employer must be registered with Social Security and up to date on all tax and contribution obligations

• You must have a clean criminal record in Spain and no entry bans

To apply, file the “Modification of Residence” (form EX-03) at your local Oficina de Extranjería during the final months before your NLV expires. If approved, you will receive a combined residence-and-work permit, allowing you to work full time.

I am dumbfounded. I am pursuing an appeal to the Spanish Consulate that rejected my visa application.

Marching Louder

 Marching Louder

Life, for me anyway, is quite busy right now. It has been for a few months and I think it will be for a few more months. 

I've got most of the documents together for the Spanish visa application, and I hope to submit the application to the Spanish consulate in London, England in 2-3 from now ie in the third week of April at the latest. Processing the application will probably need help from high places in Spain because of this passport and everything else that's wrong. I do meet all the criteria but I could still be refused. Unless...

!! COMPLETO !! 

I'm due in Spain from about 11pm Friday 28th March to about 4pm Sunday 30th March. I expect to be ATTENDING the house from about 1230am Saturday 31st March. I'm not sure what I'll be doing for much of the weekend but on Saturday I will probably be doing some shopping in IKEA and Leroy Merlin in Valencia but on Sunday I'm not sure if I will be going to the market in Valencia or not, I might do just for the exercise.

WhatsApp Doc?

TU07JAN25: As some of you are aware I regularly exchanged WhatsApp messages with a (female) neighbor, and I had been for a few years, but I wasn't very happy about doing this. I believe it was on Thursday 2nd January 2025 I had to suddenly terminate this WhatsApp dialog because of something she communicated that overstepped the mark.

She regularly visits Chingford cemetery in east London, on her own, usually in the evenings, and feeds some of the birds and other wildlife there. 

For a long time I have referred to her as "...being with the sex offenders..." "...being with Bransonoids or Bransonites, or whatever they are..." because she has male partners that sexually mimick Harold Branson (a convicted and time-served paedophile, rapist etcetera) and she socialises with them, to say the least. She is, unfortunately, very deluded and very gullible and I have often referred to her as "...being mugged (duped) a lot..." and "...been mugged (duped) again..." etcetera.

Anyway, in the evening of what I believe was Thursday 2nd January 2025 she sent me a WhatsApp message and the first (preview) line made reference to her Tittys family or something to this exact effect, it had a double-meaning though and it was sexually offensive. I did not open the message to read it because of this preview, I had to 'put my foot down' and permanently terminate our WhatsApp dialog based on this being sexually offensive. I was completely disappointed and I believe that she should be ashamed of herself. I think it was on Sunday 5th January 2025 that she finally understood what she had done. She sent further WhatsApp messages but I did not read any of them, I just dismissed them. She tried getting through to me two or three times via Voice Message but I just ignored these attempts.

She is an unfortunate case of female that is under the delusion that Harold Branson has been having sex with lots of women around someone that is wrong, but unfortunately it has all been different forms of raping, especially obtaining by deception. And, she has the inability to understand that Harold Branson is a full homosexual.

She has totally got the wrong idea about what Harold Branson has been doing around me. I believe this WhatsApp Tittys family thing was at least slightly intentionally offensive and dates back to just before Christmas Day 2025, and on Boxing Day 2025 when she visited one of her male partners. I don't think she understands that I have genuinely never had any sexual feelings towards her and one of the reasons is because she is into Harold Branson in a big way, but he is the World's number one sex offender amongst many other things. The fact that she is about four foot nothing makes it virtually impossible for me to be sexually interested in her, but perceiving Harold Branson's raping as sex is definitely a libido killer. A lot of males think Harold Branson is a Sex God but unfortunately they are completely wrong because he is a pure rapist, and unfortunately she likes these sorts of males. I have an English High Court injunction against Harold Branson (and he has been jailed for breaching it), so there is a natural conflict of interest. But this Tittys family thing just did it for me, no more. I am very fair and patient but this Tittys family thing overstepped the mark by more than one step.

Spain: Friday 6th December 2024 to Sunday 8th December 2024

This is a belated BlogPost about my most recent trip to Spain, from late evening Friday 6th December 2024 to late afternoon Sunday 8th December 2024.

 Hopefully this will become past tense this year (2025).

I have submitted an application for a Police Certificate for my Non Lucrative Visa (NLV) application, they aim to process it within approximately 20 working days so I am looking to early January 2025 to receive it (unless they require further information etc.). Now, prior to this I applied for information about any criminal convictions etc. and I had to use Andrew Branson's alias 'Lester Gray's' details. I received a list of Andrew Branson's alias 'Lester Gray's' past criminal convictions and I have inputted the ten oldest ones, dating from the mid to late 1980s, on the online application form. I have no choice but to do this, because of being violently robbed of my (Saudi Arabian) passport and identification at London Gatwick Airport all those years ago. Now, I know a lot of people around the World (none are criminals, by the way) and I am hoping this BlogPost reaches their attention because the Police Certificate should be ignored by the relevant Authorities when dealing with my Non Lucrative Visa (NLV) application owing to the fact that any criminal convictions that appear on it belong to Andrew Branson alias 'Lester Gray' (whom was jailed for life in October 2023 in France, by the way). There is a valid Injuction against the British Government (ask yourself why) and there is valid Official Immunity to the U.K. Courts (ask yourself why), I am currently stuck in a very long-term and complex obstruction by mainly British criminals preventing me getting back out of the U.K. back home so I am trying to make my own way back home via obtaining a NLV for Spain. Those high up in the Spanish Authorities know of/about my problem, and they know of/about my extensive history in Spain dating from the early 1970s to the mid/late 1990s. The bottom line is I need my NLV application to succeed, it is me applying for it not Andrew Branson alias 'Lester Gray'.

W25DEC24: Happy Christmas to all those good people that know enough about my life. I expect to be in Spain again from about 2300hrs CET Friday 24th January 2025 to about 1900hrs CET Sunday 26th January 2025, I expect to be at the house all day Saturday except for early/mid afternoon then early afternoon Sunday. 

TU07JAN25: Thank you to those that sent me mail or anything else for Christmas... as per usual I did not receive any of it, no thanks to the thievery in this God forsaken country. And finally, even though it's 7th January 2025 I wish you a Happy New Year and may it be better than last year.

The eBay Armani Si Scam of November 2024

The eBay Armani Si Scam of November 2024

Suspected Scammer: eBay member dbrv_18

Below is some negative feedback that I received on eBay from eBay member dbrv_18 in relation to a 100ml bottle of Armani Si Intense eau de parfum refillable that I sold them. I believe dbrv_18 to be a scammer. Please have a read and a look.

"The seller is fake. I do not know where he got so many good reviews. I ordered perfume from him. I opened them and there was a fake bottle, there was a lot of dust on it, the inscription was pasted, the bottle was open from the inside. It doesn't smell at all. When he returned, he started saying that I had slipped him other perfumes. Don't get fooled, he throws people for money. The worst option is to buy from him on Ebay."

Giorgio Armani Si 100ml Eau De Parfum Intense Refillable (#205064783359)

In messages from the buyer to me they said:

"When he returned, he started saying that I had slipped him other perfumes." - This is 100% untrue as you can see by the long screenshot of all the messages between us below the photos of the Armani Si box that I sent out and the bottle of perfume they returned, I did not say anything like this at all. "...he started saying that I had slipped him other perfumes." - this is from the buyer's guilty conscience, a Freudian slip maybe. I said nothing remotely like this.

Look at the differing batch numbers in the first photo.

Look at the inside of the neck of the bottle in the second photo - it is not refillable.
