VISA ISSUED...
Passport sent via VFS on 14 Jun 2014
I am collecting and scanning bank statements, credit card statements, pay stubs, tax returns, notices of assessments, cellphone bills etc for the last for four years. I am also scanning in colour all pages of my passport that has a history of my entries and exits.

I did not yet apply for citizenship but like to have every thing ready as soon as the CIC asks me. Did anybody go through the additional documents request letters? What do they ask? What else do I need to prove my 4 years residency in Canada? Please help.

I've been here since 2005 and became a PR in Jan 2011 and was absent about 60 days after PR.

i'm sorry, but where does it ask to provide this documentation?

I just filled out the citizenship application form, and nowhere does it state to "prove residency"

hope someone can confirm here if this stuff is required because i haven't seen anyone mention this before...

Here is the thread that has a link to download the form. This will tell you what documents you will need to provide in case you get an RQ. Hopefully you won't need to fill this out because it can cause several years of delay ...
