While I do understand the fact that not everyone on this forum is capable of comprehending crafty written text, I must object to some of the comments made above.
I never pretended to
interpret the laws of this country, however, I must add that I have not only an inclination, but also some cognizance to do so. Everything that I said was based on personal experience however, and not on the fact that I was interpreting some law. [ btw., congress makes law, and not interpret--the interpretation of the law relies upon the courts]
While I am aware of the law relating to asylum, not all asylees have a genuine "
well founded fear of persecution." After all, there are those with blatantly false claims, and most of the time, they are outed through judicial review.
Furthermore, people with LPR, must honor the "continuous presence" clause, and the OP was talking about
living in his COP, and not merely visiting.
Having said that, I also understand that there are special circumstances in which one must visit his or her COP. I have done that myself. However, those people subject themselves to status review or re-evaluation. They do so by voluntarily re-availing themselves to the country of which they seek protection, and are subjected to [I
]possible[/I] loss of status.

read esp. sec. (b) - Adjudication issues.
Furthermore, I was actually never abused in my home country, I arrived here fairly young and do not have any objections to the regime there.....
Therefore I suggest that whomever misread my initial statement, hopefully this will clarify some confusion.
Cheers!!!!!
