Sending off my licence for class 2 to be added

Hi all,
I have been hanging back sending off my pass certificate as I was eager to find a job and get driving and felt the genuine document was better than a rough photocopy. Now I have one and its time I sent it off. what date do I write on the certificate is it the pass date or the date I sent it.

sorry for the possibly silly question just don’t want to mess it up and cause myself a headache

The test examiner would have sent of the correct documents when you passed your test so don’t need to send the past certificate of

yes I do as I had to hang onto the paperwork as I had my cpc test in the afternoon

On the certificate put the date you are sending it, then follow the instructions on the back, the first 4 paragraphs are what you need to read.
It has an expiry date of two years from the date you passed.
