I applied in May and our passports were expired in last March.
I read here that it doesn't matter.
BUT
We were about to get RQ or Sth else ):
The officer asked if we renewed them and traveled?
The answer was No
She kept silent and wrote a note about that our passports that were expired .
She looked at my work history
She was happy with everything , the only thing that she didn't like it whether we did renewed ours or traveled!
Then she told us that we will get the oath within less than two months.
I think if everything is fine , we should get it this week
thanks fr your reply - can you please clarify if your passport was expired before you applied to citizenship? or after you applied? if before, by how many months? do u have history work? or are you housekeeper?

I sent the translation for all stamps with our application. In the interview, She asked only for
Landing papers
Ids
Nothing more.
My work history was full from the first month I came to Canada.
No gap
But
She didn't like to see our passports were expired.
Waiting for the oath inv, hope to get it tomorrow or this week! Not to get RQ):
I got a decision made in our status after two days from the interview.

Applied with a 2 years expired passport ( wrote a cover letter in the application that I didn't need to renew it ) and got the citizenship in about 7months.
Hope this helps.

No at all, I had expired passport when i applied, I sent them letter with application stating that I am not willing to travel, application got approved, test & interview passed, taking oath next month.
