I got bad news.....
I received a cessation and vacation application for going back to my home country.
Has anyone else experience this?

How it goes for any particular individual, including the timeline, can depend on many factors, including the mechanics in commencement of the proceedings, such as whether the cessation process was triggered by a PoE examination upon returning to Canada or came about as a referral from IRCC processing agents handling a citizenship application. The timeline can be very long, but that appears to typically include the investigatory phase prior to the formal commencement of cessation proceedings.It is accurate to say that the legal mechanism relating to cessation of refugee protection on the basis of reavailment requires a distinction between what might be described as the "actual reavailment of protection" versus what constitutes merely occasional or incidental contacts with the refugee's home country. See, for example, the Kuoch decision. Thus, for example, merely visiting one's home country will not, in itself, constitute reavailment and thus not be sufficient grounds for cessation of protected person status.
But to support a finding of reavailment it is not necessary for Canada to show that the person with protected status did something, in the home country, on the scale of setting up a business, enrolling one's children in school, purchasing a home, or such. Indeed, these circumstances refer to a wholly separate ground for cessation of protected person status.
The relevant IRPA provisions are in Section 108.(1), which lists the specific grounds for cessation of protected person status.
This is a very serious matter. You should contact a good immigration lawyer. If you like you can contact the lawyer below:Hello,

OP would have to be a refugee applicant. Cessation only applies to refugee applicants.Are you a refugee or non-refugee applicant?
Answered elsewhere. BUT for others: DON'T do something and THEN afterwards ask whether it will affect your status.hi i applied for asylum 2 years ago now that i applied for pr i was asked for a valid identification. ive heard we should not renew our passports ,since my passport is expired so i applied for my countrys national id and it was mailed straight to my address i didnt have to show up at the embassy .
note that my id of my country if origin is also expired, they have me in their data with my fingerprints thats why it is easy to get it and convenient because it is recognized valid identification
i just wanted to make sure that renewing national id doesn’t fit the definition of re-availement
any leads, useful information is appreciated
thanks in advance
