It's been 21 days to this date actually. The letter from the HO says to book a ceremony within 21 days of this letter which it was issued on 22nd of January. I have contacted the council but they said that I need to wait for a invitation letter from them but my approval letter says otherwise so I'm confused.1kiril wrote:Exactly! It's only been 7 days and you've got 21 days to book it. Just chill out.
It is not always a combined letter. Many people receive two separate letters. Only some seem to received the combined letter.WR1 wrote:Get your Ceremony booked ASAP.
The decision letter is also the invitation letter combined in one:

Them they say I should expect the letter and I don't things it take them anything to send the letter
Out but just because of lasiness.
That's exactly what I got too. Just called the council about it and they said that's the first letter you got and the second one(supposedly the invitation for the ceremony) should get to you in 10 working days. So all I have to do it wait.. I'll get back to you guys when I got the letter thanks for your help all!scorpion123 wrote:I also have received the combined (Approval + Invitation) letter recently.

Interesting that different councils have different procedures even when the HO send out a combined invitation and decision letter to the applicant.Mrykhami wrote:That's exactly what I got too.

That's what is worrying me. They didn't even checked my details when I called I'm guessing the HO sent my certificate along with my address etc. Unprofessional? I now wished I went for another council. lolcs95tdg wrote:Interesting that different councils have different procedures even when the HO send out a combined invitation and decision letter to the applicant.Mrykhami wrote:That's exactly what I got too.

I received the above combined (decision & invitation) letter, which also stated that I should contact the council within 21 days of the date of the letter to book my ceremony. In my case they checked my details, booked the ceremony and sent me a letter confirming ceremony date, time & venue for information purposes only. On the date of the ceremony they only requested to see the HO invitation letter & Photo ID. This was last month.
My letter also has the printed name of council to book the Citizenship ceremony and that I should do so within 21 days from the date on approval+invitation letter which I just have.Mrykhami wrote:That's exactly what I got too.

I emailed a copy of my combined (Inv+approval) letter to Local council and they've confirmed that it is indeed the Invitation letter which I'd need to bring for my Citizenship Ceremony.scorpion123 wrote:Mrykhami wrote:That's exactly what I got too.

Thank you for your response. I'm still waiting for the letter from my council. Trouble is I can't even book a private ceremony without it so I have to wait. Have you got your ceremony sorted yet?scorpion123 wrote:
