Indian Asylee With GC Travel To India

Hello Everyone,

First I would like to thank everyone who has come out there and given wonderful information.

I have a crisis that I need help and advice on. I am a GC (Asylee) and have a valid RTD that I have used to travel all over the world (Where permitted ofcourse). Avoiding my COP (India) at all costs.

Now something I ahve only read about on this forum has come true...I need to go home to see my mother who is no healh to travel anywhere. In her better days I would go and meet her in Singapore or UK. She never appied for a US Visa and now anyways it is too late.

Here are my questions I am hoping someone who had experince with India can help me with:

1. I heard that if I land in India with RTD + GC, I will be arrested right away and made to explain my asylum case. Is that true? Anyone ever landed in India with RTD + GC if your COP was India?

2. Renewing my Indian Passport means harrasment from the consulate and negative effect on my citizenship, anyone sucessfully got a passport post asylum?

3. Landing in India with an Indian Passport and a GC with AS6 category will raise eyebrows with Indian Immigration?

4. Does the US Embassy in India ever help any GC holders in case of crisis?

5. What would be he best way to enter and exit India with minimal harrasment.

I would really appreciate your help in this matter. I am looking forward to hearing back.

I have heard bad stories about Indian Immigration so dont risk anything in my opinion.

As to U.S embassy helping you? You claimed asylum and then going back to the same country...I doubt they will help you.
 
Thanks Wantmygcnow and Walker:

I had plans to marry a US citizen later in 2009... is there any way that helps if i do that before trying to enter india?

As for Nepal, Do they issue a visa on a RTD? Walker, do you have more information on that process?

Finally, If i was to renew my passport ( which will make my asylum citizenship harder). Does that make dealing with Indian Immigration harder?

I would really appreciate your inputs.

Regards,

Indian Girl
 
Do you have a stamp in your passport that says you're a permanent resident? If not. get one, and then maybe you can use that as proof of a GC, and just say you can't find your GC? I don't know, just a thought. I do know that they don't ask you to swear that you haven't claimed asylum anymore.
 
Here is my situation:

1. I do not have a NP.
2. I am pretty sure getting a passport from Indian consulate is very hard. Even if I do get a temporary one without showing my GC, how do i come back to the US after my visit?

Thanks Walker and Cafe,

It would be very helpful if someone who has done this recently could comment on what is the best way to travel to India:

1. Either through using RTD + GC to enter and exit directly
2. Or, Via Nepal- Using RTD + GC

Has anyone recently traveled there?

Thanks.
 
Please start a new thread with your questions if they are not related to this topic I am trying to get some answers for an emergency situation over here and would appreciate your respectfulness.

Apparently, you can get a stamp in your passport if you want, but you don't need it if you have a GC. If you want one, you'll have to make an Infopass appointment and ask them to stamp your passport, if I'm not mistaken.
 
As for IndianGirl00, have you spoken to an Indian asylum lawyer? I'm sure one would know what to do or how to go about obtaining an Indian passport, or travel to India. I've heard you can go through private agencies who deal with the embassy/consulates, but that costs a couple of thousand dollars, I think.
 
Thanks Cafe,

I have handled all my asylum paperwork myself from day one. I am not aware of any such agencies and if anyone knows about them please post their contact information here.

Hi girl, I am from India too and would highly recommend not to go there on RTD as you gonno have not of problems. Best way is to get a NP from Indian consulate and use that with GC. Most of my family here is on asylum and they 've travelled to COP with NP and hve been naturalized without any problems. You can IM me for more details as to how to obtain NP with asylee status. Hope this helps. DONT use RTD for India as a Indian, you re asking for trouble.
 
Thank you so much asylee boy and singh. I relly appreciate your help in this.

I will contact you accordingly.

Thanks!
