At the time, Medvedev said he was seeking asylum in Norway because he feared for his life after witnessing the killing and mistreatment of Russian prisoners recruited by the mercenary group to fight in Ukraine.
In a video published on Wednesday he said that he would hand in documents "tomorrow" that he believed would help facilitate his return.
"I hoped that I could find peace and calm here, that I could leave all the politics, the war, the army behind, but somehow I couldn't manage," Medvedev said in Russian.
"We shall see what would happen in Russia. If they kill me, OK. If they don't, thanks a lot. If I live, even more thanks."
He was convicted in April of being involved in a bar fight in Oslo and of carrying an air gun.
