I applied for SOWP on Feb 1- Online application.

Got an email from CIC for the interview. Interview letter states that:

"Bring all required documentation with you to your interview including marriage photos depicting all ceremonies, post marriage photographs, proof of ongoing communication, status of inviter in Canada, proof of ongoing education of inviter in Canada"

I don't understand why these documents are again asked for, as I have already submitted the above documents.
Request the expert suggestion on the below :
1. What questions can I expect from the visa officer?
2. What do they mean by Bring all required documentation?- Do i need to carry every documents which was submitted for the application?

Thanks in advance
- Interview = the immigration officer has doubts
- Request for documents = the agent wants to verify that the documents are authentic
- Interview = Paused procedure = extended delays
Sorry, but even if he has doubts, the interview means that the agent wants to give you another chance to convince him, it's always better than a refusal without an interview :)

Is electronic media (Pen drive or by mobile) is fine for showing the marriage pictures?

I do not think he'll ask them, but of course you can show them, it's always a good thing to show your attachment (and evidence of this attachment) to your home country (family, work, real estate)

Submit 15 November rejection date 30 november
2nd time 31 january and 12 February rejection ate
3rd time 4 march and 13 march rejection date
It is not advisable to renew a request quickly after a rejection, you should have waited at least 3 months before doing so, and most importantly, never re-apply without having changed your socio-professional, family and / or financial situation.
I advise you to take seriously the doubts of the immigration officer and try to satisfy them, wait and improve your situation in your native country before trying a new request, the best with your rejection rate is to take a competent immigration agent.
Good luck
