Just wondering, why didn't you use the local authority application service so that you did not have to hand in your original passport?

my application is complicated due to many documents, they would mixed them up completely and the order is very important to make HO understand my case

HO has not made decision yet and keeps application and passport and its too late to ask them for passport, so I am going to travel using Eu ID


will it have any impact of ho decisions and when they will see my applcation they is number of days I was away 160 using passport and they will see on the system 170 days (160 days using passport and 10 using id)


thanks

You are allowed to travel.

Your absences are only counted upto the day the HO receives the application. Not the day the application is reviewed by a caseworker.
