Hello Everyone..has anybody traveled to India after obtaining us citizenship through political asylum in 2010. I was told by someone that there are some laws changed recently by which you are not allowed in your home country(india) as u obtained ur citizenship through political asylum. I dont know thats true or not. Can someone help..plz..

whoever told you that..dont listen to him/her. No laws like that. You are a U.S Citizen now, unless you committ a crime which involves you being put in Jail..you are free to go anywhere which includes your COP.

Hi there is nothing like that only problem is some asylum
holder does not have indian passport so they have problem
getting indian visa .there is no oci for political Asylee
as they need copy of green card for that.do not worry
all will be fine in couple of months

Are you sure they need a copy of the GC? My mom doesn't have any, I don't think. She's not careful about these things, so she never thought about it. But, the website says this about OCI:

7. Please provide one:

Two Colour legible photocopies (original may be asked for, if required) of Green Card
or
Two Colour legible photocopies (original may be asked for, if required) of EAD
or
Original Indian passport on which first time entered USA
or
Original I-130 and supporting documents provided at the time of obtaining immigrant visa to enter the USA (see www.uscis.gov for details of obtaining)
or
If applicant is US/ Foreign born, pl. provide two colour photocopies of the birth certificate (In this case, pl. provide documents as per OPTION B at S. No. 8 below)

So, we can choose one, right?
