I have completed my homework. - is a sentence in the present perfect tense.

You don't say, 'I have been completed'.
You say, 'My homework has been completed.
'

"I have completed" is active (I did something.), but it's not a complete sentence. You need an object after "completed".
I have completed the report.

"I have been completed" is passive (Something has been done to me.), but it's not a good sentence.
I have been made complete. :tick:

I have completed the report. (active voice)
The report has been completed by me. (passive voice)

"I have been completed" is passive (Something has been done to me.), but it's not a good sentence. You don't use 'have been completed' on a person unless you're talking about Adam and Eve! :-D
I have been made complete.
My life has been made complete. - makes more sense, I think.
 
My life has been made complete. - makes more sense, I think. not necessarily
It depends on what one is talking about.

With my new kidney, I have been made complete.
