How about emailing Theresa May mayt@parliament.uk asking if she would tell the Home Office/UKBA pen pushers to pull their finger out and start providing a public service![]()

Also take a look at this UKBA page to see nationality waiting times
It says:-
"You should think very carefully before applying if you require your passport within the next three months...............
...................All applications for citizenship are subject to enquiries to ensure that the statutory requirements have been satisfied. Because of these enquires, we anticipate that applications may take up to six months to complete. Some applications may be dealt with more quickly and some may take longer, depending on the nature of the enquiries to be carried out.
Our service standards set out how quickly we aim to decide applications for British citizenship.
The standard is that we will decide 95% of applications within six months."
I would suggest that you send them an e-mail stating your travel plans and requesting them to either expedite your application or to return your passport. I would have thought they completed the key checks already.
yes I've read everything. When they say that if you don't have travel plans on the next 3 mos you can send. That's why I have decided to send my application since my travel plans is still next feb. I never thought it would take this long to check. I've been asking my friends how long it take to have their citizenship they say its just few weeks not same as mine. I will definitely state my travel plans next yr. thanks for the advice :-)
