i have been granted settled status as a non-eea family member of eu national. i have been living and working in the uk since 6 years but married to eu national only since 3 years.
it seems like they checked my NI records and decided to grant me the settled status.
i am confused now as to what should i do i.e. write to UKVI and tell them to change to pre-settled or keep it. i am thinking when i ll apply for naturalisation and if this comes to light at that time then what impact will this have on my status at that time.

Believe or not one of my friend applied fir visa extension and HO send him ILR instead. He reached back to them to notify the mistake and HO said whats been done us done.
If your status has been granted its from HO not from local shop. So no one can blame you for their mistake even if its a mistake. To me i would had kept it. Upto u what you decide with urs

is there any law or HO guidance which confirms what you are saying i.e. when a status is granted even if its not correct , HO will stand by their decision?

I would suggest you contact them and let them know about their decision will be better and easier for your future naturalisation application
