Thanks, everyone, for the updates. nassao41, I’m a few days behind you, as Royal Mail delivered my documents on 1 March. I guess I’ll wait a few more days to see if my status changes.
I’m still trying to figure out with certainty whether I can travel on my EU identity card + settled status. I know I can get to the EU, but will have issues at the UK border or with airlines? The settled status was linked to my passport. I uploaded my ID card to the online system, but it’s in a manual review process as it’s an old-style one without a machine readable zone.
If I get confirmation that the ID card has been linked to my settled status, I’ll travel. If not, I guess I’ll cancel or try to get an emergency travel document?
I would greatly appreciate any advice from EU nationals who have travelled on identity cards post-October 2021!
