Hi all,

I am currently applying to the express entry program as a skilled worker but I need to verify one point before submitting my application. I am considered a Palestinian refugee holding a Lebanese travel document so I am not sure what should I enter as my country of citizenship. The available option for Palestinians is "Palestinian Authority" but, my travel document is issued by Lebanon not by the Palestinian Authority. Moreover, I don't think "Stateless" applies to my case.

Hope someone can advise me on this matter.

Thank you

It would be the Palestinian option. For example, Canada issues travel documents to refugees who can't use their home country passports but their citizenship remains the same.
