Guess what arrived today?
Yep JAMES11, you were right. I have received the Citizenship Invitation letter with guidance notes at the back this afternoon.
So the letter which came with my passport/supporting documents in a brown envelope is NOT the letter I thought I would be bringing on my ceremony appointment.
Happy that everything is in place.
To those who are waiting on their approval letter, take note that you should be receiving the following separately (in some cases I heard they arrive at the same time):
1. Citizenship Invitation letter with guidance notes at the back. It only contains 1 piece of paper in a brown envelope. The header or title will read:
CITIZENSHIP INVITATION
APPLICATION FOR BRITISH CITIZENSHIP BY
(your name and date of birth)
2. A ceremony invitation letter from your local council/authority. In my case, they have provided me a date for the naturalisation ceremony so I don't need to book an appointment.
3. If you've applied by post, your supporting documents that you've provided on your application (e.g. passport, marriage certificate, etc) with an enclosed letter advising that your application has been successful.
Hope this post will help future applicants waiting on their approval.
Thank you to those who responded and tried to help me. Much appreciated.

Congratulations.
Will you please explain a bit more as I am a bit confused. I applied for British nationality with my wife and daughter. All separate applications on deferent dates.
I received my approval letter on the type you mentioned as 1. and I called council and booked my ceremony got the certificate and all done with this one letter which was tilted as invitation to ceremony.
My wife also got the same letter and we booked her ceremony which is due on 12 th dec.
Yesterday we received a letter of approval for our daughter and it is type 2 as you mentioned above. It says that you must wait for the ceremony invitation letter and do not contact the council until you get it. And if you don,t get this letter in two weeks you contact the home office.
Please let me know that we will get this citizen ship invitation from home office or council or both since council will not accept this letter of approval we have already got from home office.
I am wondering why they want us to wait for three letters that is ,one we have received and waiting for another two before she can get her certifcate in a ceremony where we all had the same type of case applied from the same Ncs.
