Just be very precise with your answers and very consistent. One thing I read on the forum is they will ask you the same question 3 times in 3 different ways. Good luck and I am sure you will do great!

Well everyone, I just checked E-cas! And it says DECISION MADE!!

I'm nervous now, what are the chances he has been rejected? His address still says the Indian address (though when I checked e-cas Friday it still said in process.
Anyone know how long it takes from Decision MADE to getting Passport?

I'm really freaking out. Been dreaming of this day since me and the kids left him November 26th, 2013.

No he wasn't interviewed or asked for additional info, and the processing time was less than 2 weeks (started working on file August 7th-Decison made August 19th).

I'll feel better when he has the visa and passport in his hands.

OMG! How great is that news!! So happy for you and us!! Does it still have your address on it or has the address in e-cas changed to the Canadian address?

Anyone know how long it will take for my husband to get his passport back after decision made?

Hi Skas

Don't look at this on the pessimistic side. Be positive! If it was a rejection they would have given him a chance in an interview first. I never heard of anyone been rejected just like this. After all you guys have a strong case. The two babies? What about them?

Relax
Everything will be ok!
