I am happy to report that after 5 months of Bishops meetings, and a stake president approval, I was approved for rebaptism, set for March 21st. This process has not been an easy one, but to all those seeking it, don't give up hope. There is a light around the corner to those who seek it. 2 Nephi 27:23 For behold, I am God; and I am a God of miracles; and I will show unto the world that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever; and I work not among the children of men save it be according to their faith.

I too have been pursuing re-baptism. I left the church in 2003 via name removal. I was originally a convert in high school. I have been attending church now for 2 plus months. My bishop thought I should wait 6-9 months and then go before a disciplinary council. My bishop has not even contacted Salt Lake for my previous records, which are needed to determine worthiness and previous transgressions. I think the long waits are due to not knowing church policy and confusion. If no transgressions are found, all the Bishop needs to do is interview you and fill out a baptism and confirmation record as a re-baptism. But the process is taking so long. I did receive a Priesthood Blessing to help with my patience in this process. But 2 plus months in and no progress. Any ideas on what I should do next? I thought about going to my stake president.
