No, they had no advance warning. Some escape, and some didn't. The famous Schindler was a great help.
No, of course not. On the contrary, they had to pay for permission to leave the country.
From 1933 onwards the Nazis made life so difficult for the German Jews (and also for foreign Jews living in Germany) that most of those who could leave did so. In August 1941 the Nazis forbade Jews to leave Germany. Conditions became increasingly bad for the Jews and in the end those still in Germany and German-occupied territory was murdered in the Holocaust.

Until August 1941 Jews were allowed to emigrate from Germany and from Nazi-occupied Western Europe, provided they could find a country to accept them and could actually travel there. They were able to pay the fares (including meals and so on) in advance in Germany, but they were not allowed to take much money with them and had to pay for permission to leave Germany. In September 1941 Heydrich ordered a halt to all Jewish emigration - in anticipation of the Final Solution.
Until about August 1941 Jews were actively bullied into leaving Germany. However, they had to pay for permission to leave and were not allowed to take more than ten marks out of the country. (They had to leave the rest of their money in Germany). The main difficulty was finding countries willing to accept them and transport was often a problem, too.
because of a rise in anitsemitism, they fled to countries like Germany. this of course would be reversed a few years later when Hitler came to power and the Jews would return to Poland
In the Holocaust the Nazis did not 'release' Jews. Until August 1941 Jews in Germany and some German-occupied countries were allowed to emigrate, if they had somewhere to go to and could actually get there. In September 1941, they were forbidden to leave as there was a change of policy.
When routine deportations of Jews from Germany began in October 1941 some Jews from northern Germany were dumped in the Warsaw Ghetto, but it was not a standard practice.
