Hi all,

I received the decision of the hearing and then I applied for PR. My question is, can I now travel and stay outside of Canada ( a country except my country of birth) for 6 months? Is there and limitation to to stay outside Canada or I can be in other country with another visitor visa on my travel document?

I will be happy to share your experience about that.
Thank you.

You can travel to any country with travel documents depend on the country if you need visa or no, I will not suggest the full 6 months it is always better to return bit earlier than 6 months.

Agree 100% I just shared my experience , but if you spend more than 6 months upon your return officer will ask bunch of question
Thank you for sharing your experience. I have one more question. If I work temporarily outside Canada (3 months), does it make any concern for the PR?

I don't think so it will cause any problem unless you are going back working in country of your asylum- there is not such a law that you cannot work anywhere else-

If you applied for PR as a refugee you cannot leave Canada. You can only leave Canada for a family emergency matter.
