i also know how frustrating it can be waiting for the decision......hmmmmm......i went through it by occupying myself with other things.....infact i tried to blank it out and most of the time it worked.....infact the day i received the brown envelope was the day i least expected it......
cheer up.....all will be well......
Thank you Bebe for the update. Hopefully the passport wait will not be that long as majority of people seem to get their first passports in about a month. I hope the summer holidays do not cause delays as I can imagine the increase in applications just before the holidays.
I am having a group ceremony too next week and have been debating about sending my application for passport on the same day too as all the dates will be the same. I think I will go with the completed forms and documents and see if i will have enough time to photocopy the certificate before sending it. My ceremony is in the afternoon that is the problem.
Best of luck with the last bit of dealing with home office.
