What "Original documents" required for the interview?

[12om3]

Feedback is appreciated..

For the citizenship test day & interview, other than my original documents (record of landing, PR card, certificates..etc.), do I need to get kids original documents too? I mean I can't get original shool records anyways! copies that I have submitted with original family application are actually "copies" of copies! original school records remain within the school I guess!
Also, should I get my kids passports, PR cards, record of landing..etc. originals?

Seniors please have an input here

I don't know what is your local office, it may vary office by office / agent by agent.
In my personal experience Test Letter, PR Card, Landing Paper & PP for adults are sufficient. They never asked for kids documents but you can take it, to be on safe side.
Only PR Card and landing paper along with PP was asked at door and interview. We carried all other documents like kids PP, school records etc out of uncertainty but never asked or bothered about it.
We do get a printout of school index records here in Toronto, that serves as original. If you don't have it, keep the "copies" as originals. You will not need it though.
I haven't submitted anything else with application, so can't comment about certificates etc...

my recommendation is to take

1- NOA's for the past 3,4 years
2- T4's
3- Employment letter if you have one

They asked for my Son's Passport, PR, Landing paper and His Care Card which i added as secondary ID.
I took my Son's birth certificate and School Letter , copy of which i send with my application. But they never looked into that.

For myself too, they just checked Passport, PR, Landing Paper and Driving licence.

I took my original degree certificated and original school letters for English proficiency, but they didn't checked anything.
