EEA national without permanent residence card

[losthatez]

So I just applied for the citizenship and was going through the answers after applying. I am a 25 year old Polish/Vietnamese citizen. One thing I noticed is I mistakenly said YES to this:

Are you either:
- An EEA national who has been issued with a permanent residence document
- A family member of an EEA national who has been issued with a permanent residence card

I was given ILR under the EU settlement scheme but I don't have a permanent residence document I believe. The application is already sent and paid for. Is there any way I could contact UK Visas and Immigration and correct this information? How bad of a mistake is this?

If you hold Settled Status and qualified for naturalisation then you have no issue - a PR card is not required.
Have you also selected the option ILR (incl. Settled Status) and given evidence/reference number for UKSS?

So I know PR card is not required but when asked in the application whether I have a permanent residence - I selected Yes, even though I don't have it.

Have you also selected the option ILR (incl. Settled Status) and given evidence/reference number for UKSS?

I did select that I will use ILR for the citizenship application but I don't think I was asked for the reference number.

Have you had your biometrics yet? Have you loaded and submitted your document scans yet?
If not you can include your Settled Status approval - the document list should have asked for proof of "free from immigration restrictions".

I haven't had my biometrics yet and haven't loaded/submitted any document scans.

The document list did not ask for "proof of free from immigration restrictions". I have literally just submitted my application. I also just withdrew the application on the advice from Home Office when calling them.

I do have another question though. When you mentioned submitting and uploading the documents, those happen during the appointment for the biometrics right? I cannot just myself scan and upload anything before the appointment?

You can scan and upload yourself. Most people do this.

[alterhase58]

As per reply from CR001 you can do the scan and upload yourself - the appointment is for biometrics basically.
Note that UKVCAS is a contractor to the Home Office, they deal with receiving applications and biometrics, and there's only very basic advice. It's surprising that the Home Office advised you to withdraw the application - now you have to start again(?). You could have just attached your Settled Status letter and an explanatory note with your other documents.
