From Q's blog:
Last year Mr.O used the following words to explain the big jump of FB PD in
August 2010.
"There continues to be extremely rapid forward movement of most Family
preference cut-off dates. This is a direct result of the lack of demand by
potential applicants who have chosen not to pursue final action on their
cases, or who may no longer be eligible for status. The rapid movement
provides the best opportunity to maximize number use under the FY-2010
annual numerical limitations. Should applicants eventually decide to pursue
action on their cases it will have a significant impact on the cut-off dates
."
Last year Mr.O's arguement for big jump was that many people already gave up GC during the long wait.
Mr.O is writing/making up a nice document right now.........he can always
find excuses/explanations of what he does.......
