Have they sent you the zoom link for the interview? The oath will not be on the same day.

no i have to be physically present in a location they have determined. also, they say bring all original docs thats listed in document checklist in citizenship application form... does it mean i have to print physical presence calculation, get 2 new citizenship photos?

Usually, it's a simple 5 or 10 minutes chat that every single applicant used to have before covid, right after the citizenship test, when that one wasn't online yet.
It's noting to worry about. You'll be asked generic stuff about your life (your job, where you live, your family...) and it will be an opportunity for the IRCC officer to access your language proficiency through this simple conversation.
The officer will also take the opportunity to look at your documents, and no, you don't need photos or the application itself, you need to bring your passports, IDs, PR card, proof of language.
Also, in case there's an issue with your application, like a forgotten vacation in the physical presence calculator, you'll be told about it, but let's leave that for when it happens, if it happens...

99.9% Safe and they just want to see the documents and it's random.

I think my wife will get an Interview as well because she made a mistake by submitting some expired documents. This happened with my friend who got several Stamps from a foreign country during his stay in Canada so the Judge needs to understand what is the reason. They think either they don't live here or some Income is affiliated.
