citizenship
Hi, posties wife here.
I just wanted to ask if anyone knows how long it takes for the passport department at the US Embassy (London) to respond to correspondance?
As you know (or not!) I've just found out that I may be entitled to citizenship through my Dad and I sent off the 'in the first instance' form on the 26th Jan. I thought that they might have been in touch by now. Am I being too optimistic?
How's everyone doing?

I would give it a few months before you can expect to hear from them.
Although i'm sympathetic to your situation.
I don't see the INS jumping through hoops to get back to you within a week.
Have you tried telephoning them? They can be pretty helpfull If you can get hold of a real person that is

Have you tried to e-mail the London Consular? I don't have the e-mail address to hand but if you do a search on here, it's bound to come up. I found this the best way to communicate with the Embassy whenever I wanted to chase them.
