EEA documentation is NOT a visa.
If you mean he then applied for a EEA Residence Card, then again, don't say "visa", and definitely don't say "Family Visa", since that can be confused with the visa for family members of British citizens (that one is a visa, EEA residence cards aren't visas).then He applied for renewal of visa and was granted 5 yrs family visa in 2019 till 2024 .
Do you realise it's unclear what type of residence permit you have?
What's the validity of the Pre-Settled Status itself? I'm assuming he was issued his EEA card, after that he applied to the EUSS with it, and after that he got Pre-Settled status for 5 years. Correct? If so, the Pre-Settled Status will likely be valid for some time after the printed date on the card.
If by "passport" you mean acquiring British citizenship, that's a different question altogether. First he needs Settled Status, then he needs to live in the UK for an additional year, and only then he can apply for citizenship. And only after acquiring citizenship he can apply for a passport. Passport is not the same as citizenship; many British citizens have never have a British passport (if they have never travelled, they have never needed it).Is this going to affect my friend in obtaining the passport ,
