Migration Colombia invites the Venezuelan migrant population from the departments of La Guajira and Cesar to collect their Temporary Protection Permits (PPT) that are already printed but have not been claimed by their beneficiaries, after 90 days of being ready.
The deadline to claim them expires on April 12. For this reason, the immigration authority summons the migrant community that still does not have their document, to verify if it is included in the list of PPT to be delivered at www.migracioncolombia.gov.co, option “You are still on time”, button ” Pick up”. If so, you will find the place of delivery there.
According to the immigration authority, in the aforementioned departments there are more than 118,000 printed PPTs that have not been collected by their owners. More than 10,000 Permits for Temporary Protection (PPT) have not been collected in the Guajira Region of Colombia Migration.
That is why through the Comprehensive Plan “You are still on time”, Migration Colombia creates this opportunity for the beneficiaries to present themselves to claim them and to be able to access the public and private offer provided by the PPT, explained the general director of the Entity. , Fernando Garcia Manosalva.
Unfortunately, if a person does not withdraw their document within this period, it will be understood that they have abandoned the application and the administration will be forced to cancel the permit.
