Hello
I can be wrong, by my understanding is that they are no longer valid to travel, work or prove any right beyond Dec 31, 2020. After that date people with these card would still have about 6 months to apply for the EU Settlement Scheme before it closes to new entrants for good.
The last EEA card I have seen had a date on it indicating validity until 2023 but that doesn't mean anything now.
Thank you very much for your input. I am less concerned for the cards - and the respective rights, such as employment - and more so for the right of my child to enter Britain after 31/12/2020 with a FP affixed in a non-EU passport and issued before 31/12/2020.
The critical point for us is the right of entry - post entry WE will await child's Irish citizenship derived from the Irish parent due to the delay in issuing citizenship confirmation due to COVID. Subsequent rights will be derived from that.
