We received your application to sponsor on September 2, 2016.
We started processing your application on September 30, 2016.
We sent you correspondence on October 17, 2016 about the decision on your application.

But Under Permanent Residence Application Status, It's showing "DECISION MADE" and if I click it, It's Showing

We received application for permanent residence on September 2, 2016.
We started processing application on October 30, 2016.
Medical results have been received.

So please anyone help me what does it means?
Why only In PR Application status it's showing "DECISION MADE"?

ok, relax and please don't listen to the other poster. he commonly posts information that is not very helpful.

did the sponsor ever receive sponsor approval? if so, then the status in ECAS/MyCIC was never updated to reflect a decision was made on the sponsor application. it is common for the online tools to not be updated regularly and it means absolutely nothing.

if the sponsor did receive sponsor approval, then it sounds like the applicant's application was approved. the application will not be rejected unless there were multiple attempts of additional information being ignored or an interview was held. legally, they need to give the applicant the chance to answer to their concerns before rejecting an application.

if the applicant is visa exempt, there is a chance his passport request was waived and they should be on a lookout for their approval paper in regular mail.

if the applicant requires a visa to travel to canada, then the applicant should be receiving the passport request soon by email (if it wasn't already received) so he can submit his passport for visa processing and receive his approval paper back from IRCC.

How long ago did it change to DM? It can take some time for an e-mail to go out, sometimes it seems like they go out in batches.
