Do not use your country passport use only Canadian passport and yes you can go visit to your home country as a Canadian citizen
So I can not use my home country of Origin passport at all for any travel ? If I request it from immigration . So they going to question me?

Hi, I do not know if you were able to get your passport back, but I was in the same situation. I raised a webform to IRCC in January where I explained my situation. They answered me after 5 weeks that they sent my details to the responsible office and the office contacted me 4 days later to come and pick up my passport. Hope it helped.

It's not recommended that you renew or use your home country passport as these actions can made basis or cessation applications (just these actions are probably not enough to prove re availment). Unfortunately, it can be dangerous if you visit your home country before becoming a Canadian citizen as when you do so (for whatever reason), you put your status in Canada at risk (and this is probably going to be enough to prove re availment). You may not face any consequences immediately but you can face problems with your citizenship / PR Card renewal / sponsorship applications.

Could you provide a link to the form you filled out to return your passport? I can't find anywhere to contact IRCC..
