the brc says EU settlement scheme and not EU settlement of a family member or something like that.
You are mixing things up.
1. The soon-to-be-retired EEA RC reads: "Family Member EU Residence"
2. The Presettlement RC reads "EU Scheme Pre-Settlement"
She applied for No. 2. hence the wording on her card. Period.
Well we have applied again with all the documents required marriage cert and the expired vignete on her passport.
Applying to the same thing multiple times is not going to magically make the wording change.
The thing is could we just ask for a replacement or we done good applying again?
No.
The only way to change the wording would be to apply for No.1. the EEA RC. Which, given current timelines, won't be issued in 2020, and so would already be a waste of time and money.
Since she has already applied, and got issued a EUSS card, a second application for EUSS Pre-Settlement will likely just be marked as invalid. She'll probably receive an email/call advising her she's already got the status, so why apply again, etc. You might or might not get a refund though.
Her having this BRC means she wont have problems after we come back from out Holidays to Spain, will she?
Why would an UK-issued BRC card that reads "EU Scheme Pre-Settlement" be a problem when returning to the UK?
As said above, the only difference is that with the EUSS card she does not benefit from the visa exception, when going into EU countries (Then again, as you said, thats not an issue), not the other way around. No issue whatsoever in any case entering the UK.
I mean dont know if that is a great issue but we were a bit concerned about what the brc says.
I'm really just getting over the fact that your solution to having a concern over the wording of the card, was to apply again.
My posts express what I believe are the facts, based on the best of my knowledge, about the topics discussed in this forum. They do not constitute immigration advice.
