My mom’s and brothers’ travel document were sent on Jan. 15, 2019 and after a whole month exactly on Feb. 15, 2019, they received a letter from IRCC asking them about the city and country where they were born (even though they had stated that in the application).
My family wrote letters and singed them with a copy of their passports and sent them on Feb. 17, 2019. They are still waiting until now. Hopefully by the 17th of March, they receive it.

I know, I was really sad since I also live 5 minutes away from the border and can't cross, but well, I guess I will go to Europe again like last year, and yeah, I applied with a PR card, protected persons probably get the visa all the time, but someone like us that crossed the border from the US, I think it's really hard, I had to try but failed and wasted 300$ in that process
Many protected people are denied visas to the US. Yes there are consequences for crossing over an official border but you were lucky to receive asylum when many have crossed and have been refused.I know, I was really sad since I also live 5 minutes away from the border and can't cross, but well, I guess I will go to Europe again like last year, and yeah, I applied with a PR card, protected persons probably get the visa all the time, but someone like us that crossed the border from the US, I think it's really hard, I had to try but failed and wasted 300$ in that process
If I can recall correctly, a Convention refugee only needs an RTD and the letter from IRB confirming that they are a refugee.
However once you become a P.R you need your P.R Card along with your RTD when travelling.
What happens if you travel without your P.R card?
Can someone who understands this legally please respond?
Cheers

HI
yes you need a visa to visit Turkey and it takes up to 80 days , but usually you will get it in 20 - 30 days . good luck .
Thank you for replying. Do you know the website that I should use to apply for a visit visa please?
You can't apply for a permanent resident travel document. Because you are not a permanent resident. But yes you can re-enter Canada with your RTD. Most likely you will be questioned by an officer regarding your trip. If you are not doing nothing wrong they will let you enter Canada again. I used my RTD a few days ago and that's what happened to me.
Hello,
Your case is same as mine, same time everything. Except that I already applied for RTD but still waiting for it , I applied for PR and RTD at the same time.
You can definitely travel once you get your RTD to all countries except your home country of course.
Some countries have regulations with a Canadian RTD but you just have to call the Embassy of the country and ask them if you would be allowed to travel to their country with the RTD or you actually need some other kind of documentation as well.
Good luck!
