I received a call from my local council in Wales, Monmouthshire. They have received my certificate and while I have not received my invitation letter, they are fine with me attending a ceremony without it.

Just a bit of (non) update for me. Approved on the 29th of June and still waiting for an invitation letter. I have not called up my local council yet to see if they received my certificate.

Thank you for those who replied to my earlier questions. (Tho admittedly, I am still confused on the FPN. I would like to just mention it, even if it is not on my record due to taking the course, but not sure if it is a criminal or civil issue.) I have another question. Do your referees need to have...
