Hello everyone,

I have a question about traveling back to home country after granted asylum.My husband is actually the one who applied for asylum,he just put me down in his application.Is it ok for me to travel home and visit my family or would I still be in trouble when I tried to get back?One more thing,can I travel with the approved asylum notice or do I have to wait for the GC?
Thanks in advance
 
Have you ever travel with a Refugee Travel Document?
That aquamarine passport is a red flag in any airport, no matter if your going in or out.

It will automatically send you to a second inspection and it raises questions.

I travel with my national passport and a RTD 4 times before becoming a Permanent Residents (Never to my home country) and I was always sent aside and asked to wait for interrogation. I was able to travel...but I lost my flight once flying in from Canada.

If I was still an asylee I would not go back to my COP until I get my Green Card. Once you have a green card, your status changes and you are treated as any other permanent resident.

It's just my humble opinion. I'm not a lawyer, I'm a USA Citizen thru asylum and I'm speaking out of experience.

Good luck in what ever you decide to do.
 
Colombian PR, Thank you for your reply.

I've never traveled w/ a RTD. I plan on going to England for 2 weeks in September and by that time, I don't think I will receive a GC which I filed about 3 months ago ( because of my father's hold due to 212.a.3.b ). As a derivative Asylee, someone told me that his hold will affect me too and his inadmissibility applies to me too. But at the same time, people affected by hold have been told that their travel won't be affected by the hold as they're still asylees and their status hasn't changed.

It seems like there are a few risks involved. I worked w/out an EAD while in college 4 years ago and I've read that it might prevent me the entrance on my return too. But the situation really demands that I went to England. ( My COP is in different continent ).

So I don't really know....
