EEA2, Emergency Passport vs Regular Passport

[papimauri]

Hi all,

I am a EU citizen (Poland), and my partner is applying for EEA2.

I have to travel to the USA soon after submitting the application, and therefore have obtained an emergency passport as there wouldn't be enough time to request it back.

Which passport should I use for each purpose? Should/can I use my emergency passport as my form of ID for my partner's EEA2 application and the regular one for traveling -- or should I do it the other way around?

Thank you in advance!

Hi Papimauri,

It should be the other way around. You should use the regular passport for ther EEA2 application and the emergency passport for your travel. I'm not sure what would be Home Office's reaction to the submission of a emergency passport, so better err on the safe side. The US border should accept the emergency passport without any problems.
