Send copies and keep originals. You maybe required to present originals later in the process.

As a general rule, NEVER submit the original documents anywhere.

Always send copies, what if these original doc's are lost in the transit or the same set of documents are required somewhere else.

Well I think I already replayed your question in another thread, but here it is again :

It's not explained in the document they sent you ?

I do believe you only have to send copies of your official documents that belong to you (passport, diplomas, CRA notice, apartment rental contract, pay slips...) any document you can not get another original of. As no document will be returned to you. A good practice would be to send certified copies,
However anything like CBSA reports, Travel records from other countries, health records in Canada, work statement from your employer, you would need to send originals of these (documents that you can easily obtain another original).

You may call CIC call center to enquire for this.

Good luck.
