Travel to Europe passport back with EU card

[tortise]

Hello All members I am asking on behalf of my friend.
His application is submitted under SS route (about 1 month ago)but he want to travel with us to Netherlands.
Can he ask for passport back along with EU card for travel?
And how long does it takes to return passport and card?

Thank you in advance

Usually it takes 10 days to have the passport back after the request.

Thank you for your reply.
But they will return EU card too ?
Because with only passport he can't go outside to uk.
