Hi @cedplayer,
Sending a domain to another registrar is known as a transfer. It sounds that you may have transferred from GoDaddy to WordPress, and you will have no problem transferring from WordPress to GoDaddy. This process is highlighted in this documentation:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/move-domain/transfer-domain-registration/
You should have no problems accessing it from the Domain Management page:
https://wordpress.com/domains/manage
Before starting the transfer process you will want to make sure your email address on file for your domain is correct. Here is documentation on how to do that:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/update-contact-information/
Ensuring your email address is correct is important so that you receive the EPP code (required by GoDaddy) to allow the domain to transfer.
Let us know how it goes!

Hi there,
Cancelled domains are not released immediately, and it can take anything from a few days to over a year before a cancelled domain becomes available again, if at all. You should never cancel a domain that you still want to use, as there’s no guarantee that you’ll be able to use it again somewhere else in future. Only cancel a domain if you’re completely sure you no longer want it at all.
If you still want to use this domain I can restore it for you. Then you can point it to GoDaddy, and transfer it to them once you’ve owned it for at least 60 days. But the domain won’t be available for registration somewhere else until after it expires in August next year.
Please confirm if I should restore the domain.

kokkieh , yes i would like my domain restored please , thx for the support! that was exacly my problem!!

Okay, the domain is back in your account.
You won’t be able to transfer it away until you’ve owned it for at least 60 days, but meanwhile you can point it to any hosting provider by adding their name servers or IP address to the domain.
You can find instructions for the various options at the link below, or if you provide the necessary records for me I’d also be happy to add them for you.

kokkieh , im not too sure how to procede tbh it says i need to wait 60 days but i would need the adresse for my wix website!!!!

they are telling me to put this
ns0.wixdns.net
ns1.wixdns.net
but i have no idea where!! -
Hey @cedplayer,
It is great that you got the domain back! Bummer that you have to wait 60 days but that is sometimes how goes :(
What Wix gave you are called Name Servers, and the document that @kokkieh linked previous covers how to do it. Here is a more direct link:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/move-domain/change-name-servers/
Please note the changes can take up to 72 hours to become active, but typically take only a few hours.
Best of luck! Let us know how it goes :)
