I applied for Canadian citizenship but not sure now since I will have to give up my current citizenship.
I have received the letter for oath and I am not sure if I want to get the citizenship at this time.

1) Can I withdraw my citizenship application?
2) Will it be on some record that would impact my PR renewal?
3) Will it be an issue when I apply for Citizenship next time if the circumstances change?
4) Do I need to even withdraw the application or simply not appear for oath? Which one is better and has less impact for me if I want to apply for citizenship next time? If withdraw is better, should I provide a reason for my withdraw?

Any insights much appreciated.

According to CIC, you can withdraw at anytime before the oath but there is a procedure (search the CIC website). The reason you have is valid one. Check the link below.

Thanks for your reply. The link is very helpful :) Do you think it's better to withdraw the application than simply not appear on the oath? I'm struggling between these two and any insights will be appreciated.

What is your current citizenship? Maybe if we know that, there may be some other suggestions people can give you.

From what I've read, you have to officially withdraw.
