Hello,
I'm preparing docs to bring to the upcoming test/interview.
I've been advised to bring all original docs.
Just came across my mind if I also need to bring the original citizenship application that I sent?
I just typed on my computer and printed it out without saving it. (My mistake!)
… any idea?????'

Thanks for your advice

No, the original application is the one you signed and put in the mail. If you print an other copy, it would not be the original.

Be sure to bring all other documents though.

Guys, quick question here, did you receive the hard copy of confirmation with which you need to attend the test??

We sent you a notice on May 7, 2019 to appear and write the citizenship test on May 23, 2019 at 3:30 PM. The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment. If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us

Cause I only received the confirmation in email, but not in regular mail... any thoughts here?

Thanks

Personally I would still suggest to contact them as it is indicated in the e-mail: "If you have not received this notice prior to the date of your scheduled appointment, please contact us"
No need to. The notice they're speaking about here is the electronic one.

According to the e-mail extract above "The notice you will receive by mail will be your official confirmation of your appointment.", it explicitly states the notice should be received by mail.

And saying in the e-mail to contact them in case this particular e-mail is not received wouldn't make sense.

Anyway, I'm also 99% sure that bringing a copy of the e-mail would be just fine. But personally, for citizenship I would not leave anything unclear or take any chance. Just my call.
