	First call CIC to let them know that you lost your oath letter. Then while you're at it, ask them what you need to do. I was told before by CIC when I thought my oath letter got lost in the mail that going to the oath without the letter "isn't really a big deal", just explain to the CIC officer how you lost the letter. They will just probably going to ask you for other proof of identity, as they have already your name, date, and time of ceremony in their computer database. I did get my oath letter in the mailbox so I don't know what would have happened during oath day. Oh, by the way, zouz, Congratulations!

	Oh tx Beaver... Am just worried not to be able to take the oath without that stupid document... Why they don't post it in our ECAS btw and avoid the mailing hassle alltogether !!!

	Hi Azouz, First congratulations. If you ignore the venue where the oath will be held, then use this page to locate it. http://www.cic.gc.ca/specialev/english/search_recherche.cfm As it's not for sure that the place will be the same with the test venue. And as advised by Beaver contact CIC help line to notify at least that you didn't receive it, and to make sure as well that the address you picked from the website is correct. I know here in Montreal the address shown on CIC's website for the Hellenic centre (one of multiple venues used to hold ceremonies), is incorrect while on the ceremony letter it's correct. Enjoy you ceremony!!!

	Oh yes may I also add that one reason to call CIC is to reverify what time, place, and date your oath ceremony is going to be, even though you think you know when and where it is. You don't want to miss out on an important occasion because you got confused, and you have no oath letter to double check on.
