Thanks, i calmed down a little bit, however per following chapter:
Future intentions (p.39)
9.17.2 The most important criterion is that the child's future should clearly be seen to lie in the UK. A reliable indicator should be the applicant's and/or the family's past behaviour. If that suggests an established way of life in the UK, and we have no reason to think that this will not continue, we should accept at face value that the child intends to live here.
9.17.3 If there is any information to make us doubt that the child's future lies here, for example:
the child, or one or both parents, has recently left the country for a period of more than six months
the child is about to leave the United Kingdom
one or both parents is resident abroad,
we should write to clear up the point. If our doubts are serious, and we are still not satisfied this criterion is met, the application should be refused.

case worker might have a right to question application if his American immigration Visa would have been disclosed,
he might be treated as: the child is about to leave the United Kingdom - even if he might leave the country in a year or two
so I think they simply muddied the waters with this directives to some extent (I would like to see the time period in there
so everything would be clear).
Jambo do you think that I should post separate thread on this? Maybe there was someone with exact same situation
in the past who could advise.
BTW my wife is in similar situation and her passport will be stamped with american immigration visa for sure,
so for my son I can probably go with EU id as proof of his identity however I'm completely
stuck with her case as she wants to apply as well and in such case her passport with visa will have to be sent with an
application. I would imagine there is similar requirement related to "residency intent" for AN applicant as well.
