Citizenship Interview - Necessary Documents

[JimE2013]

My wife just received her notice to take her citizenship test, and she'll take the oath of citizenship later that same day. I'm not clear on what documents she needs, and in what format. The letter says "all your original documents that support your citizenship application (as listed in the document checklist in the citizenship application form)"

Does this mean she needs to include her physical presence calculator again, another citizenship application, her original CELPIP test results, and another residence outside Canada form?

The notice refers to all the original documents which she submitted as copies she sent along with the application when she first applied. These things have been checked in the document checklist she had to include with the application. So, it is the pr card; landing document; photo id and health card; passport; test results certificate; and any other document she submitted with the application as a photocopy. All of them must be presented as originals when she goes for the test and interview. Good luck.

Are you supposed to submit a landing document too during the citizenship test?

Question. I submitted my original IELTS results during my PR application a few years ago. I now only have a copy of those results as proof of English. Will that be a problem? I am a fluent English speaker as I grew up in Ireland so the officer will be able to tell that as soon as they speak to me!

Hi there! According to CIC, you have to show that you either:

1. Graduated from a post-secondary or secondary education program taught in English or French, OR
2. Send a copy of your IELTS results, even if the results have expired.

They also say "if you have lost these results, contact the test provider. Don't contact us." I didn't realize it was possible for a website to sound pissed.

No, it' not a problem because is part of the process to mailed the original test result.
So, no way for them to expect for you to have the original paper if it is part of the documents sent previously.
