Good Day Ladies n Gents,
I recently sponsored my wife who resides in Jamaica with my two daughters. Application was submitted in the first week of August 2013. We were contacted because it was short a document that was released July 30th 2013. >:( Anyway, sent the document in as requested. On September 24 2013 the application status has been in ''Decision Made' which i was told was fairly quick. Its been 4 months and no new updates.24th of February makes it 5 months. aside from this being the hardest thing to do in my life. I'm hemorrhaging money, i pay rent here in Canada as well as other expenses in addition in having sent back 18,000 via western union since may 2013 until now. Is there anything i can do to speed up this very slow and non informative process. How long am i looking at because the CIC website has some inaccurate times regarding processing. it says 22 months. yet i don't know a single perrson who has waited this long. any help will be appreciated.

regards,
brandon

Your first "Decision made" is about you being approved as sponsor, there's still a long way to go. The actual processing of your wife's daughters's application is what takes the longest and it depends on every Visa Office how quickly they move.

Try asking for their file through this application https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/privacyTerms.do and see what if anything was already done.

Ask for your wife's, not yours, so get a consent from your wife.
 
The "Decision Made" most liekly refers to the decision on sponsorship. After that, you should have gotten an email or letter stating that sponsor was approved and they forwarded the application to Kingston for stage 2/applicant approval. That is what takes the long time. To see what actual time you should expect, ask your question to the Kingston thread: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/kingstonjamaica-t29680.0.html

There is absolutely nothing you can do to speed up processing time. You can try ordering your GCMS notes to see what the current status is in your processing.
