Documents checklist for Settlement route

Hello,

I am applying for British citizenship using the settlement route. I don't have a permanent card and this is what I stated in the application. Why is it on my document checklist as proof of my nationality? Did I make a mistake filling the application?

Proof of Nationality

You must include your:
passport or EEA national identity card
UK permanent residence card
evidence of freedom from immigration time restrictions
You must have a permanent residence card before you can apply for citizenship

Thanks,
Aga

If you have settled status you don't need a PR card - just provide the confirmation email and your reference number.
Proof of your nationality is your passport. You may have answered "yes" to the question "are you an EU citizen with a PR document". Not an issue include your Settled Status details instead.

It was indeed a matter of choosing "no" for this question.
Thank you!

No, it has to be a wet signature.
