Hi there,
I am confused a bit, I want to see clearly my situation please help me with your own experience or suggestion.
I have been Convention Refugee (Protected Person) for three months.
My PR card is in process for one month.
I consider to apply for the Refugee Travel Document. I know I will need one guarantor (that would be my lawyer) and two references.
1st question:
My guarantor and one of my reference can not be the same person, right?
I am planning to apply my RTD.
2nd question:
If I would get my Travel Document and I would want to travel to Munich within the following few months, I guess I wouldn’t need Visa to Germany (Munich) right?
3rd question:
According to your own experiences would be there any risk at the re-entry at the canadian border as a Convention refugee with Refugee Travel Document when I come back to Canada?
Maybe would be there a person at the airport who asks me, where is your PR card or something just like it?
Will she/he maybe not accept if I say my PR card is in process? Can they see in their system my PR is really/ indeed in process?
Or should I wait for getting my PR card and just after that apply for the Travel Document?
Honestly, What do you recommend me?
Thank you in advance!!

No. Can not be the same.
I am planning to apply my RTD.
2nd question:

No. As per the German consulate. You do not need a visa with RTD. They sent me this link when I contacted them:

I am assuming there won't be any risk. If there is, then what's the point to get RTD for people such your case and mine.
But, just in case, take your positive hearing documents with you, also have your PR application number printed with you ,and you should be good.
