Re: Citizenship Ceremony cancelled due to Covid-19

I have checked Stockport Council which got updated an hour ago and they’re saying they can still conduct ceremonies and to call them to book.

Stockport council. Approved 7th of July. Never got any letter, and my council does not have my certificate. Today the council has informed me that ceremonies are suspended again. Oh well.

Early July approved received their invitations just a few days after they were dated which was unusually quick. Maybe they were just lucky and the mid July approvals will arrive ...
