Interview.. need Original Naturalization Certificate?

[KoalaBear]

Hey guys, I wonder if we should bring our original Naturalization Certificate to the interview? Or can we bring copy? The reason is I just applied for passport (regular processing 4-6 weeks) when we received an IL for my wife... Please advice. Thanks!!

In my case, the IO did not even ask for it either a copy or original.
It's on their file if you already submitted it with other required documents.
If they ask you, you can just tell them why you don't have the original.
Good luck with your interview!

Thanks a lot dongseokji and Congrats to your GC!!
I called the USCIS this morning, they told me to go ahead to the interview with the copy and explain it to the interviewer if they ask, they also tell me it's not necessary for me to reschedule my interview appointment just because of this.
So, I hope everything will be great Thanks again!!
