Hello,

I was just checking my tracker today and saw a note that Citizenship Interview is required for both of us (my husband and myself). I haven't gotten the email & am expecting it to come in the next few hours/days.

Just wanted to prep ahead of that to see if anyone else has recently taken Citizenship Interview (specifically in Niagara Falls office) and what are the typical questions etc.? Are we expected to take any documents along with us? Any experience/feedback from folks that have taken the citizenship interview would help.

Get the originals of the documents you provided when you applied for citizenship.
That's it. If you know French or English, you're ready for the interview, it's very very basic usually. IRCC may ask for additional documents during the interview (say, translation for some passport stamps, i94 report or something else) but you'll know that afterwards, but for the majority, it's as easy as being able to answer to "hi, how are you doing today" and "what do you do for a living?" for 5 minutes.
