Documents, and getting them verified at source

Boards rarely accept a document from you. They accept it from the institution that issued it, which is why this step takes longer than any other and is worth starting first.

Which states this affects

The answer depends on where you trained and what you have already done, so the useful version of this page is the one that reads your own circumstances.

That version is not published yet. No state has been read and signed off, so there is nothing yet to check your circumstances against — how the reference is built explains what has to happen first.
