It's been a year and a half since the dwarven caravan first came in the fall after I embarked...and one wagon, along with two merchants and some draft animals, are stuck on my trade depot. I've tried rebuilding the depot to no avail. They won't leave, and I can't receive immigrants because they aren't relaying the fortress wealth back to the civ...help? I searched around the forums minimally with some keywords but I couldn't find anything. Elves have come and gone and were able to trade with no problem. I'm pretty sure I remember the message saying they were leaving and I don't think this is the whole caravan...I think some of them did leave at the time. I only have 16 dwarves and I planned for many more, I need some migrants.

Do they have wagons? Is your entrance covered in traps?

[Mimodo]

How much did you trade them? I remember once I traded them about 10000 in small stone crafts, and then donated another 7000 worth, and it took them a very long time to pack up and go

Is your  (D)epot accessible?

They have a wagon, a couple of guys and some livestock but the other half of the caravan already left I think...I have some cage traps but the depot is accessible...I did trade them a lot, but there's nothing left on the ground there.

One word.

More than likely they don't want to go over the traps. I've noticed that they simply won't go over traps in a wagon, so you may need to either deconstruct the traps or build a temporary exit for 'em. I may be wrong, but i've seen this pop up recently.

I've had that happen too.
Traps were the culprit.

Likewise I placed traps as they were leaving. They will start there forever til they have a clear path to leave, but they won't take up booze, won't go mad, and will fight of.anything that approaches.
