Re: change brc issued under eea to eu settlement

Many thanks. Am I at risk of being rejected by APAD when I’ve already received settled status decision letter from Home Office? And it sounds like APAD decision letter will probably take some time to arrive?

You may find this summary useful: https://www.the3million.org.uk/travel-to-the-eu
I understand if you are a "visa national" then you would require a visa to visit the Schengen area.
Settled Status is a UK only arrangement and doesn't give "EU free movement" type privileges.
Thanks so much!

Re: Non-EU spouse travelling to EU?

Just to add, I currently hold a UK residence card which expires July 2021.

My pre-settled status expires in 5 years time, and I didn’t get a new card or permit as pre-settled status is validated on gov website.

Again I was contacting Easyjet, trying to get a written confirmation that there won't be any issue when boarding without a visa. However, the op...
