I have received all my documents ( indefinite travel document and all supported documents) back with a letter saying to send urgently my old travel document ( 5 year live to remain) .The letter dated on 18 may and received on 21 may.
The letter specified that the old travel document is needed to prove the residency requirement.

I found this link about residency requirement.I didn't read at this stage of stress !
