As of June 30th 2021 the backlog of pending applications under the EUSS had grown to almost 570,000.  
The Home Office has assured us that EEA+ citizens who applied before the deadline will have their rights protected and can use their “Certificate of Application” as evidence of a continuation of such rights.
