Hi everyone,
I have a question, actually I successfully passed citizenship test on first week of may 2017, and they said that I should wait from 1 to 3 months to get a letter for the oath, but now I checked online my statues still it's in process but they add one update that they sent me a letter to provide some documents , any idea ? What documents they need , because after the test they didn't ask me anything I had all my original documents but they didn't take it , please give me an idea I m worried. Thanks

Possibly a Finger Print request.

It could be a FP request, but it could be a CIT 0520 (requests for particular documents, such as documents to show ownership or rental interest in residences; or documentation to show employment as reported; could be for translation of passport), or even CIT 0171, the full blown RQ, or it could be a request for a very specific document.

Whichever it is, it could be because of a random quality control check. Nothing to worry about.

That said, you know your history, the facts of your case, whether your presence calculation was perfectly accurate, whether you have had any law enforcement contacts which might raise a potential prohibitions flag (something that might require submitting official disposition for example), whether you have actually been living at the address you gave IRCC, working for the employer(s) you reported, and so on and so on. So you should have a good idea whether there is anything to worry about. If your history and application are all in order, nothing to worry about, you make timely and responsive submission of the documents requested, be that Finger Prints or rental receipts, T4s or Notices of Assessment, whatever it is they request.

Trying to speculate what it will be is merely guessing, just guessing.

In contrast, you should have this in your hands soon, within weeks or a month anyway, and then you will know.

Unless you are aware of some reason why you have something to worry about, there is no reason to worry. Probably minor request, probably a short delay, a few months perhaps. (Nothing compared to what half of all applicants were suffering just a few years ago, when scores of routine applications were taking up to two years and non-routine cases, no matter how minor the reason, often going beyond three years.)
