Date of Passport Application: 04/09/17 Joint application with Naturalisation
Date Passport to be received: waiting

They changed my ceremony dates twice. The first time i was given 21/02/18. they then sent an email postponing it to 28/02/18 which is the last day that i must go through the ceremony according to the home office. When i questioned this they preponed my ceremony to 21/02/18. Probably trying to get me to pay for a private one, which i do not want to.

Took just under 3 months to approval. Online status "decision taken" appeared on 27/11, but approval letter received almost 3 weeks later dated 01/12
