给儿子10月底申请的到现在没扣钱 没音信。 昨日写信询问， 得自动回复一封， 说最近要6周才能确认信。 蜗牛得节奏。。。
_____________
10月底通过NCS寄出，一直没扣钱， 一直没收到任何confirmation letter。开始比较淡定， 等了快两个月写了信催， 得自动回信一封，再无音信。。。。 等了又快三周又写信， 仍无音信。 后来想爱咋地咋地吧， 发现帐户扣钱了， 25号收到入籍纸。
准备通过邮局申请护照， 被告知有加快服务， 只要未满16岁都可以使用， 即使第一次申请，多花不到40英镑， 立马约了次日得appt，一周后取护照。。。终于可以回国了
唉……最近快圣诞快新年了他们又开始消极怠工了是不是
realy slow is not it

我女儿的申请10月24日递交的，27日HO签收的，到现在也啥消息都没有呢。没扣钱，没有信，啥都没有。据说现在处理到10月25日收到的申请，下周开始处理10月26日以后的申请。另一个帖子里有人发了个论坛的链接：http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=147260&start=940&sid=3ed92493279596c5db5412caed47f1c7
谢谢亲， 这样看就是总体慢， 我开始担心东西弄丢了呢。
6周算快了，我这都快要n周了。
Right now it takes 7 weeks for the acknowledgment letter.
"You should receive an acknowledgment letter between 4-6 weeks after we received your application. During busy periods this may even take 7 weeks. If you have not received such a letter, please contact us for a duplicate acknowledgment letter.
I have checked our records and can confirm that no decision has yet been made on your application.
We aim to process 95% of applications within 6 months however there are a small percentage of applications that take longer than this to be resolved.
All applications for citizenship are subject to enquiries to ensure that the statutory requirements have been satisfied. Because of these enquiries, 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.
When the decision is made, or if we require further information from you, we will contact you in writing. "
Be patient

护照很快的。我儿子前一周周六寄出去的，上周3收到短信说东西收到了。昨天回去收到寄回来的supporting documents。
估计这两天能收到护照……总共2周。
呵呵，不过我们不急着用。所以快慢无所谓。
是的呢，我们着急，主要回来了还要申请中国旅行证。多加点钱买个保险吧， 昨天递交时候 说最快周五周六收到， 最迟一周收到。
能不能多口问一句，你孩子都入籍和有英国护照了，怎么申请旅行证啊？旅行证不是应该在入籍前申请比较好吗？
旅行证就是给有外国护照的人申请的啊， 否则就直接申请中护照了
