Hi, I need to apply as a extended family member of an EEA national, but his passport has expired and I’m afraid we won’t get his passport in time to make the application.
The last application I made, I was advised that the success of my being granted a residency card depends on Uk membership to the EU. Does that mean that after the 29th of March if my application isn’t granted will I need to apply for a different type of residency? I or will it not affect me if I send my application before Uk is out of the EU?
I would rally like some advise please as I am panicking and I have a signing in May and I don’t not want to be detained.

Nobody should panic. The government has published information on the "settled status" successor to the EUR RC/PR:

Review first - you are welcome to ask questions but remember this hasn';t been rolled out fully.

Okay, thank you. So does this mean that nothing will change in regards to the process?

Major change is that "settled status" will be digitally based (unless additional documents are requested) - and the basis in law will be UK not EU (subject to to the withdrawal agreement which hasn''t been approved yet).

Okay, thank you
