I applied for myself and my 2 years old son. Does he need to be in Canada while I do the citizenship exam? I know I have to be but how about him? I could not find anything online about it

Not him. Requirement is for you to be here for test/interview/oath.

Do you have to show any documents for the minor during the online interview?
I havent seen a post on it but we can wait few people who have attended interview(whoever applied with their child).

Thanks. Is this from personal experience? My son had to for overseas with him mom for a few weeks for family issues and I was invited for an interview after the test. So far I could not find any certain information if they need me to show his docs during interview

From personal experience, yes. I can't tell you for sure if they will or not, but no one bothered asking any docs for my kids. Likewise I haven't noticed anyone mentioning it on the forum

Thanks yeah. The uncertainty just very annoying. I wish there was clear instructions. I appreciate your feedback
