Hi every one! in notification letter say bring any original document that you had when you applied!
Does it mean that I should get my original school degree too?

Yes.

The test invite will outline what exactly you need to bring during the test. Have you got the test invite?

Make sure you read the "Discover Canada" book multiple times and understand it. Don't rely on 3rd party online tests to pass the test. You can still practice online tests to learn the information however in order to pass the test "Discover Canada" guide should be your only source of learning.

Usually the originals are: PR card, all passports, landing document, 2 pieces of ids. Also you need to take originals of the documents copies of which those were submitted along with the application (example language proof etc).

In the application, I had to submit a "legible photocopy" of my name change decree, no original required. I do not actually possess an original of this now. I'm hoping that is not an issue, and will bring the photocopy I used. Any thoughts?

Whilst they ask for all the original documents which you should take if you have them, normally the only documents they look at are as stated by thecoolguysam "Usually the originals are: PR card, all passports, landing document, 2 pieces of ids" with provincial driving licence and health card being the best id.

Just to add to paw's post, you only need to bring your passports used for citizenship application. You dont need to bring expired passports if they were not used in the application. Only relevant passports (both valid and expired) used.

Thank you for the replies. I'll calm down about the name change decree original, then. I will take my university diploma from the US as I used that as language proof. Just in case!
