A: If by travel to visit your family you mean return to the country from which or are requesting asylum, that is not a good idea. The government will question whether you really have a credible fear of returning to your country. You might consider applying for a refugee travel document and meet with them in a third country. Consult with an immigration attorney to see how to do this.
