The MCC does not appear on your licence you just get a completion certificate. Applications are open until the end of October so interviews probably will happen mid November which would fit in with your MCC completipn. Put in an application and if they phone you before completion of the MCC just explain your situation I'm sure they will understand. If you apply then you stand a small chance of getting in given the number of applicants. If you do not apply then your small chance of getting in decreases to zero. All the best.
