Q: Two questions:
1: Some of our candidates got younger families, some they live some 30 or 40km from the main parish so can they, the OCIA candidates have the lessons after Sunday Liturgy?
2: If the person has been baptized in another denominational churches or being baptized as a child in Catholic church and wants to come back again to the faith as adults, can they be also dismissed after the homily?

A: In practice, many people associate with a parish outside their canonical boundaries and travel for worship and sacrament preparation.
The OCIA never calls for the dismissal of the baptized—only of the unbaptized. For more, see my book, Full Communion with Us.
