Who is "they"?

 

If the instructions that you were provided said to get an updated police certificate, you should. 

 

To my knowledge for immigration purposes, they are good for one calendar year (despite the expiration date on the actual certificate).

I believe that you should try and get another one for the interview Incase of anything.
