    Travel with Travel Documents For Protected Persons/Refugees

    For Christ's sake dude are you going to keep insisting in this bs? I'm talking about the thing I'm 100% sure because I'm involved in this process. My roommate paid LAST WEEK, 84 $CAD for a Colombian visa APPLICATION and after being approved, he paid more 112$ cad for the ISSUANCE of the...

    Travel with Travel Documents For Protected Persons/Refugees

    Not many, MOST of countries need a visa with RTD, despite of some countries taking in account the "place of birth", to consider if you need a visa with the canadian refugee travel document or not. (exemples: Costa rica, Colombia...) "Except following schengen countries: " Where did you get this...

    US Visa B1/B2 Questions.

    What does it have to do the fact Mexico exempts a visa when a person has USA/Schengen/UK valid visas, with returning to Canada? I believe he didn't lose his card. He just is not a PR, and I really doubt that the airline can confirm somewhere if the person is PR too or just refugee. I'm not...

    Are you SURE that at the ID page doesn't have your city and country code of birth (TUR)? It's under date of birth, and at right of your the gender. Also at the 3rd page it says inside "This document cannot be used to travel to Turkey" . My sugestion is, take your notice of decision and work...

    Travel to Colombia with RTD

    Unfortunalely, it's not so simple. The "place of birth" on RTD is also taken in account to determine if the person needs or not a visa. This was already discussed in the topic "travel document". I've contacted Mexico (I got a visa), El salvador, Costa rica, Guatemala, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador...

    PR card

    OK I get this part. I came back 3 times from Mexico this year and only last time they insisted for a pr card even though I told them I wasn't pr yet. In this case, how the company can refuse only the RTD if they don't have access to Canada immigration system to know if the person is also a pr or...

    PR card

    Just curious, how can the airline know if the person is a PR already or not? Couldn't the person say they didn't get the PR already while overseas and just use the RTD to board?

    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    Honest question, -what benefits exactly that a PR person have, that ***YOU*** don't have as an approved refugee? Despite to wait longer for the process to become a citizen, what else does it impact currently your life? Limbo for me, is while still being a claimant.

    Refugee Travel Document - Questions and Answers

    Legally only the RTD should be enough to allow to board back to Canada, but the airlines prefer to be cautious otherwise they can be fined, if they mistakely board someone. In this case we SHOULD BE TWICE cautious and always carry proof of our current status in Canada, IRB decision, work...

    Travel with Travel Documents For Protected Persons/Refugees

    You You "don't think" but unfortunately it's the reality, like me and flowercita already mentioned. So it's impossible to make an universal list for visa exempt countries on Canadian RTD since IT DEPENDS YOUR NATIONALITY. Check IATA. This is from selecting Canadian RTD and destiny...

    Travel with Travel Documents For Protected Persons/Refugees

    Of course the RTD has different treatments according with the nationality. Just two examples: I’m from South America and I don’t need a visa for Colombia or Costa Rica when traveling with my RTD. My friend from Nicaragua, however, does need a visa for both countries, simply because of his...
