You could be right slip, it might just be an e-mail for your appointment giving the latest procedures to expect etc.

In my e-mail I highlighted that despite their announcement the Gov.UK webpage on that subject still indicates a UK CNI is needed for marriages in Philippines and asking them to clearly state the correct requirements and specifically the need for UK CNI

Just have to keep plugging away sometimes to get to the bottom of things.
Even FOI requests often get 'lost in translation'

How are your preparations going? all OK I hope?
