Yes!
They'll verify your passeports and IDs, and it's up to the citizenship agent regarding the other documents.

Hey @Seym, do you have any cancelled passports completely outside your eligibility period ? If so, did they ask to see it during your interview? Thanks!

Hello.
Yes, I had a passport which was expired in 2010. The agent asked me for my passports without explicitly saying if he was interested in the old ones or not and I gave them all.
But he didn't even check the stamps in the 5 years period, so not sure my experience is relevant regarding your old stamp issue.

Added you to the spreadsheet.

Can you share your application type (single/family) and physical presence days

Hi,

Application type : Single

Physical presence: 1825 days

 

[guddylover]

Thanks but I got two attachment docs in my email. 1) Test Email content and 2) Test notice Feb 12 2018 document
Other than that I did not see any attachment. That is the reason I asked like how to do I get the form. in the first document they said bring the prohibition form but I did not see form. So I am confused like where can I get the form? should I call back or wait for physical mail?

Did you scroll all the way down on the attached document?

 

[decilion69]

Is it possible to call CIC local offices ?

From what I've read on the forum, sounds about right.

Sucks that they want ALL original passports, and not just the ones that cover the eligibility period. I'm debating whether to get this one stamp translated in my passport from more than a decade ago. Likely won't.

But here it tells that only the passports covering the eligibility period are required.

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...der-subsection-5-1-adults-18-years-older.html

Step 8 – Go to your interview, test or hearing
We will ask you to come to our office for a review:

• the original documents you submitted with your application
• the passports and travel documents covering the eligibility period.

If applicable, you will be tested on your knowledge of:

• English or French
• Canada’s history, geography, government, and the rights and responsibilities of citizenship (the citizenship test).
