Hi,

May I kindly request for a travel clearance going to California, USA as I need to visit my aunt who needs my assistance. There are a lot of families being separated due to the closed borders. I hope my family reunification will be considered. I will be staying at their house for the rest of the trip.

Hoping for your kind consideration. 

Thank you!
