There are many problems with the salvation-by works doctrine of reincarnation. First, there are many practical problems. For example:
1. We must ask, why does one get punished for something he or she cannot remember having done in a previous life?
2. If the purpose of karma is to rid humanity of its selfish desires, then why hasn't there been a noticeable improvement in human nature after all the millennia of reincarnations?
3. If reincarnation and the law of karma are so beneficial on a practical level, then how do advocates of this doctrine explain the immense and ever-worsening social and economic problems - including widespread poverty, starvation, disease, and horrible suffering - in India, where reincarnation has been systematically taught through out its history?
There are also many biblical problems with believing in reincarnation. For example, in 2 Corinthians 5:8 the apostle Paul states, "We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord." At death, the, the Christian immediately goes into the presence of the Lord, not into another body. In keeping with this. Luke 16:19-31 tells us that unbelievers at death go to a place of suffering, not into another body.
Further, Hebrews 9:27 assures us that "man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment." Each human being LIVES ONCE as a mortal on earth, DIES ONCE, and then FACES JUDGMENT. He does not have a second chance by reincarnating into another body.

Ecclesiastes chapter 9 verses 5, 6 and 10:
"For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any [thing] that is done under the sun... Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do [it] with thy might; for [there is] no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest."
No, dead people do not come back to visit us.

People "live" when they go to Paradise. If you go to hell, you too will live, very sorrily, but you will live.
As far as people coming back to life and live on earth, the Bible states that there will be to witnesses who will come back during the tribulation and preach Christ. Normally, if something happens once in the Bible, it happens again.
It would just be a guess, no one really knows until we get to heaven.

I seen Jesus hitchhiking on a deserted highway.
He asked me if I believed in God ,I replied "yes I do".
He touched me on my arm and told me not to worry so much.
A moment later he was gone from my car.
I was so spooked and amazed my car ran off the road and I was hospitalized.
Nobody believed my story of the hitchhiker , honestly I am starting to think that it did not happen.
I met my wife to be in that hospital and her name is Angel.
