That doesn’t mean that you are allowed to use your home country passport or that Canada won’t start pursuing those who have used their home country passport. The more people who use their home country passport as protected people, the more likely Canada is to pursue some of the to warn others not to do so. If you want to make sure you keep your status use an RTD. The RTD wouldn’t exist if using your home country passport was an accepted option.
Your Response was: “A PR can travel on their home country passport as long as they don't travel to their home country. If they travel to their home country, then they put themselves at risk of cessation when they apply for Canadian citizenship and risk having their PR status revoked by Canada. Some people are able to travel to their home country without this happening but there are others who end up losing their PR status and being forced to leave Canada. So it's only travel to the home country that's a risk. Of course once you are a Canadian citizen, you can do whatever you want.” That’s just not correct and gives the impression that there is no potential issue with using your home country passport as a protected person as long as You don’t return to your home country. Using a home country passport and renewing a home country passport have come up in cases or reavailment. There is a risk of using your home country passport while there is not risk of using an RTD. Canada has chosen to pursue some of the blatant cases of reavailment but that’s not a guarantee that others won’t be pursued. Just because one person gets away with it doesn’t mean there won’t be any consequences later on or that another person will get away with using their home country passport. If you want to guarantee that you can keep your status in Canada the only option is RTD.
