Ok so I was initially going to apply for my PSWV in December but I hadn't received my degree yet. I asked my uni to send me a letter stating:
•applicant’s name;
•title of the qualification;
•Date of the award (as defined in
paragraph 79 of these guidance notes);
•the body awarding the qualification;
•explain the reason why the applicant is
unable to provide their original certificate
of award; and
•confirm that the certificate will be issued
And they sent that in November so its dated November 2011.
In the same letter however they also included:
•applicant’s name;
•title of the qualification;
•start and end dates of the applicant’s
period/s of study and/or research for
this qualification at the United Kingdom
institution.
So my issue is this:
I decided to postpone my application in order to go on vacation and by the time I came back I had received my degree in the mail so I no longer need that letter stating the reasons why I didn't have my degree yet. However, since that same letter included information that I need for other attributes, namely the:
•applicant’s name;
•title of the qualification;
•start and end dates of the applicant’s
period/s of study and/or research for
this qualification at the United Kingdom
institution.
Can I still use that letter? I don't have enough time to request a new letter which this time omits the part about me not having my degree yet.

Ideally you should get a fresh letter but due to time constraints Yes you should be able to use the initial letter sent to you.
