Hello
I got married last year and am currently in the process of changing my name to my married name. I am currently in british columbia. I got notified by health services BC that they are going to process my name change to my married name and they will mail me new care card and driver license.

Should i wait for these documents to arrive before i apply for citizenship ?

Does it make a difference in processing time of citizenship application ?

Does it impact the application in a negative way if i change my name to married name ?

What documents i should send with my application as an evidence for my name change.. is the marriage certificate and 2 id's enough along with my paystub which shows my married name ?
