Hi everyone,
I just came back from my COP. I was there for about 4 months, working for the UN, and will be going back there soon. That's what happened at the immigration:
I presented my GC and RTD--I received my GC in early May and had a valid RTD with me when left the country.
Immigration: I cannot stamp your RTD, it says that you're any asylee, you need to get a national passport
Me: an immigration lawyer told me that I could travel with valid RTD, I will get a national passport
Immigration: how long were you out of the country?
Me: about 4 months
Immigration: what was the purpose of your trip?
Me: Business, I work for the UN
Immigration: Welcome back
She did not ask anything about going back to COP. It was a very pleasant experience, relative to the crap I had to go throught before getting the GC!
Hope it helps.
Gino
