Visit to the country which I asked protection from - visiting a dying person

[mariusallen]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering under which condition a refugee person can go for a short term trip to the country of which he asked protection from in order to visit a dying family member? Did that ever happen in the past? Is it possible? who can advise or assist with this matter?

Thanks a lot to whoever can assist with this matter.

Stay safe and enjoy the week.

This can cause challenges for refugees as it appears that your objection and/or risk to your safety no longer exists. People do face challenges over this.

Any chance you now have Canadian citizenship? If so, no issues traveling to your home country. You can go ahead.

If you are not yet a citizen, then it's risky to return to your home country and this could potentially result in a revokation of your PR status once you apply for citizenship.

Also, I have made the assumption that you were the primary applicant in the refugee application. If you were a dependent then let us know since this will change things.

Sorry for your situation and good luck deciding what to do.
