Article 45. |
The Repatriation Deposit dealt with in part i)
of Article 26 of this Decreto Ley shall be deposited into the Special Fund
of the Immigration and Naturalisation Department of the Ministry of
Government & Justice, one (1) year after the date on which the immigrant
landed in the country. The Ministry of Government and Justice shall
maintain said Special Fund in the Banco Nacional and shall render accounts
of the same to the Contralor General de la República quarterly. |
| |
Article 46. |
While the year referred to in Article 45 has
not passed, the immigrants deposits shall be maintained in a special account
in Banco Nacional and shall only be used for the following: |
| |
|
a). |
To return to the party in question, when they leave the
country before the year (1) is up from the date on which they landed on
Panamanian soil, insofar as they have notified the Immigration and
Naturalisation Department in writing, before leaving the country, that they
are leaving permanently; |
| |
|
b). |
To cover the deportation costs incurred by foreigners.
Such costs include those of food, lodging, medical attention, medication,
hospitalisation, transport and any other required; |
| |
|
c). |
To cover those repatriation costs of Panamanians overseas
who are in economic squalor. |
Therefore, immigrants are advised that they will not receive the repatriation
deposit back from the Ministry of Government & Justice upon completion of their
immigration process and obtaining permanent residency status in Panama.
This repatriation deposit will become part of the Immigration & Naturalisation
Department's funds.
Nor will a person receive the repatriation deposit back should they decide,
during the immigration process, to change from one type of immigrant visa to
another. The requirement above for return of the funds during the first
year (after arrival in Panama, not after submission of the repatriation deposit)
is that the person leave Panama permanently and notify the Immigration
Department in writing of their intent to do so.
