There is a non-zero chance of that happening (although at this point, I think it might be unlikely).

If I were you, I would open a webform, explain that I've already submitted the passport pages but I missed to submit translation for one stamp and attach it along with the webform request. This is in anticipation of further, rather unnecessary delay, in case they decide they want to get back to you and ask for the translation of that stamp.

That is my opinion but personal preferences vary. I'd let others provide their opinions as well.
Thanks for the response. Actually, i just saw your post late, I replied on the same email they sent me a request with the translated documents. Hope that’s okay! Do you think I should send another one through the web form? Will it be an issue if they saw another email from me?
@rajkamalmohanram , please advise

Hello Everyone,

Just got out of the Virtual Oath ceremony. Everything went well, and fast. Finished in 1 hr 10 minutes or so.
Overall scheme of things is similar to what rajkamalmohanram had posted earlier here, so no point repeating.

Best of luck to all those in waiting!

Saw DM on tracker just now.

1 year, 6 months, 11 days since delivered.
1 year, 3 months, 22 days since AOR.

I wish everyone still waiting best of luck, and I hope your magical moment comes sooner than you think.

Timeline:
Originally mailed to Sydney NS, later transferred to Vancouver office.

Mar 24, 2022 Physical presence completed
Mar 24, 2022 Prohibitions completed
Mar 24, 2022 Language skills completed
Mar 07, 2022 Ghost update
Mar 05, 2022 Passport scan request
Nov 22, 2021 Citizenship test completed
Nov 19, 2021 Scheduled to take citizenship test
Nov 15, 2021 Citizenship test In progress
Mar 9, 2021 Background verification completed
Dec 3, 2020 Application received and processing began

Also FYI, for the passport request, I had some dual language stamps that contained both English and non-English text.
I ended up sending my passport as it is without any translation, but I did disclose in the email that I was aware of those stamps and that I wasn't sure if they needed to be translated.
Congrats/Félicitation, Decision Made/Décision Prise,,,
check your ecas,,,
you will see a ghost update soon on new tracks,,, then you will see Oath invite,,,

Seriously I don't know what's wrong with CIC.

I submitted my application while living in Mississauga. Last April I moved to Vancouver and I updated my address in ECAS immediately. I even called them to make sure they noted my address change and the guy on the phone said there may be a delay in my application because they need to transfer my file to another province. Well, OK I guess, I can't complain.

Couple of days ago I received finally my Oath notice. Set for 7:45 AM EST time. 4:45 AM Vancouver time.
And in PDF it says Mississauga office.

I don't know what to do now.

Now I am worried that during zoom connection they will tell me that I failed to inform them of my address change and will deny me of getting into the Oath ceremony.

Is that a problem that my office is Mississauga but I am in Vancouver?

I am so disappointed with them

No one cares which address you have on file and why you changed or didnt change the address.
They will simply ask if that address on file is ok to receive the certificate.
As @salem10 said, its just that missi might have decided to just issue oath notice rather than transferring the file or your primary office would be still be missi even though you updated the address hence the secondary office would be vancouver.
Dont worry about how they process. Nowadays many get test and oath from different offices even when they didnt update address.

I updated my address to edmonton in May. But I received my test from windsor and and test completion happened only in windsor before which they transferred the file to edmonton.

All it matters is that you got your oath and there wont be any questions.

Thank you, although I find it really odd that they didn't think about applicant having his ceremony at 4:45 AM local time. They should have a better system I guess.

You should be good. I have updated my new address during oath ceremony and they sent the certificate to the new address given during ceremony. You would also be asked to confirm your mailing address while sending the signed oath form after ceremony so they cannot miss it.

Just come out of your dreams early that one day or else you could end up dreaming abt your next ceremony date every night, lol!
