Sent my passports for stamping in 1st week of Dec. Last week the status was updated as "Decision Made". It doesn't say any abt approved. Have not received the stamped passports yet. I am not sure why receiving my paspport is delayed when the decision is made. Sent mail to Buffalo office asking abt the status. Is it going to impact whatever the decision they have made ? I am little bit concerned abt that.

To my enquiry, Buffalo office responded as below:
"
Your passport/s is in line to have the Visa printed/added. If you need your passport, it can be returned to you without the Visa.
e-Cas is for applications processing within Canada.
Immigration cases being processed in Visa offices outside Canada use a system different from that used to process similar applications in Canada. As a result, the e-Client Application Status (e-CAS) frequently does not reflect the status of cases being processed in Buffalo.
"
Atleast This indicates it is approved.
How long it takes to get the stamped passort ?
When I received mail from them initially, they said within 15 working days it will returned.

Please don't be impatient( I know you're not). Let them take their time. I received my passport back from CHC ND the next day my ecas changed to decision made.

My status also changed to "decision made" in last week i.e 15 dec 2009. I am also waiting for my passport with visa stamping..My friends whose status changed to "decision made" received their passport in next week.
I hope we will received passports back within 7 days.
