If you have the Local Register Certificate then the visa office will accept that . They accepted ours in January ( at the time I thought it was the NSO cert but when we recieved the visa and our papers back it turned out it was only the LRO cert)
I hope this helps , but I would double check with the visa office before submitting your application , maybe we were lucky !!
On another note , we also used the LRO cert to ammend Lanies passport , again the Philippine Embassy in London accepted this
