I got an asylee status staying in US for 4 and a half years already. Can I go back to that country for a short visit?

U.S.C.I.S. discourages persons who have gained political asylum from attempting to return to their homeland of persecution until they have become US citizens and this country can better protect them. That being said, the fact that you have already had political asylum and permanent residence granted means that sufficient time has passed so that it would be difficult for anyone to accuse you of having submitted a fraudulent political asylum application. Also circumstances may have changed in your home country during that period of time that affect your view of whether you would still be persecuted. Finally the length of time that you are thinking of going back – two months – is sufficiently short so that most immigration inspectors would not be overly concerned when you return.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
