Congrats,
You just need the oath letter, your PR CAR, one photo ID like driving license and some offices will ask for the landing document too. It doesn't hurt if you take it with yourself.
Make sure to sign the third page of the oath letter and give permission for taking photo.

For dress they say business attire but I saw a couple of ladies by skirt above the knee!
Doesn't really need to be business business. Just as simple as we wear on daily bases to go the office. I put my noal dress on and went to the office after oath.

Good luck
Thank you for your advice, GAZZZ:)

Test today was a simple affair, but it did include some True or False questions, not just multiple choice. Scored 100%. It really is all about the official guide, Discover Canada. This was an excellent practice: http://www.yourlibrary.ca/citizenship/.

Interview took less than 5 minutes. Was told everything looks great and to expect oath letter in the mail. For ceremony, bring just landing paper/CoPR and the PR card.

Cheers, all.

I found the link in my previous post to be a good practice.

Hello July applicants,

I am finally a Canadian citizen. Thank you so much for your advice and replies. It took me 8 months approximately from the first date of my citizenship application to the end of a citizenship ceremony. I wish you guys get Canadian citizens soon & Good luck.

I took the test on the 14th, and my friend took it on the 24th, both of us in Scarborough. Guess what? She already received the oath letter! That means thy mailed it the day after the interview. Oath is on April 14.
I have nothing, though. Officer said everything was good and to expect oath letter "in 2 to 4 months," the usual speech, which my friend heard too. Now that my friend got the letter, and knowing that her first test invite was lost, I should be a little concerned that my oath invite may be lost, so I called the CIC main number to see if there was any chance to get someone live (knowing that it was highly unlikely). I never called them before.
After having checked online for the right info and not finding the call centre hours, and after several minutes of going through menus, I was finally informed that the centre is only open Monday to Friday 8 am to 4 pm.
I'll call first thing on Monday.

Did your friend got the oath letter on the test day? Its highly unlikely for anyone taking test on March 24th to have the oath letter by March 27th!!!! talk to your friend again.

Quick update, just called CIC to let them know I'll be out of Canada for 10 days next week, and asked about my file, they told me last note on file is `Granted`, which means my file is approved and I'm in line for oath now

She got the letter in the mail 3 days later. Interesting, eh? I wait.
