First of all find out the reason of them withholding your passport. It may be a documentation error which may be easily sorted if you take the required documents to them. If it is the home office, rather than the passport agency that is withholding your passport, it may be difficult to get it back in time, or for a while as the reasons may be more serious. So a holiday in the U.K. would seem to be on the cards.

There must be a reason. If its because they need further documentation from you, make an appointment and travel to the passport office so you can maybe get it same day.

Go on holiday to the Channel Islands and have a great time! It is normally possible to get your passport back from the Home Office -- if they can find it -- but not always a good idea in terms of getting your application processed in timely fashion.


mike-from-spain
Perhaps they are worried you will flee the country and they are investigating you for some sort of criminal activity, or that they feel you will misbehave when you do go abroad.


little weed
There must be some reason you are not telling us as to why they have kept your passport.


sdfrizz
You first need to find out why your passort is not being returned.

Meet the conditions they specifiy, and then you should get it back.

That depends on where you want to go and how you want to get there.

Nothing to cheer you up mate. Buy a keg of beer, invite some buddies in and stay home

let say if you are intending to go to Turkey for holiday and now you can not go because you do not have your passport.
First you go to local police station and put on an Turkish broken english accent and claim political asylum.
The next day you tell them you have changed your mind and willing to return to Turkey.
Because the government is so obessed with reducing the number of asylum seekers in UK they will encourage you to return to your own country and will give you £3000 and buy you a air ticket to Turkey.
When you finished spending your £3000 in Turkey ,just walk into the British embassy in Turkey and tell them you have lost your passport and let's hope they will issue you with a emergency passport and buy you a return ticket to Britain.
Problem solved , cheer up pal.

FOLLOW A DIFFERENT FOOTBALL CLUB


happy go lucky tonight
1st question, what country do you live in and who issued you the passport. 2nd have you committed any crimes or are currently facing a trial by jury?

Go sit and cry in a corner like the rest of us!

You don't say which department of the Home Office that is holdong your passport, nor the reason(s) they will have given you already for holding your passport (again you don't say if it's a UK passport or not). As such the best advice you could be given is: In the letter you will have received from the Home Office advising you that your passport is being held there will the contact details for department, section and person dealing with your passport (problem?). Now you have two choices (1) comply with what they are requesting (eg paperwork required, etc) (2) Request further information as to what you have to do to get your passport back.


devonmonky
Have you been a naughty boy while following your football club? Involved in a criminal case at the moment? well there has to be a good reason while they are holding it.

Best of luck fella

Go to Bournemouth - it's got sun (sometimes), and lots of pubs (to drown your sorrows) and if all else fails, the sea to drown yourself in.


sophs_ellie
get on the phone and start pestering them, but there must be a good reason for them not to be giving it back

This is against the law. Your passport is yours and no one or company has the right to take it form you and hold it in their possession.
