Hi guys I rung the Register office of the council where I live and left a message for them to call me back as its been a week since I received my approval letter from UKBA but no invitation letter as yet and becoming increasingly worried as they say once you receive your approval letter you MUST boo...

Thanks ukpl - I will ring the council tomorrow as my approval letter says that I should receive the invitation two weeks from the date of approval which was Jan 20

Thanks - it seems that I should ring my council then

well my acknowledgement letter stated just:

PO Box 306
Dept 1
Liverpool

but the approval letter was hand written
UKBA
PO Box 306
Dept 1
Liverpool

Yes that is what my letter says, that the invitation comes from the UKBA

If they are friendly enough they will say that they have your certificate there and can make an appointment for you.
Probably your invitation is stuck in a 2nd mail post room.
