Well, my concern is that, for example, if the current policy is not to process FSW Outland apps, then that would require a change of policy for us to get anywhere. Likewise, if the policy is not to allow landings for new immigrants (those who've not been exempted already), then that would also require an official change of policy.
A government in the middle of an election would probably not want to do anything drastic that might lose them votes. So, we may have to wait for things to settle a while after September 20th to see major changes in the way the Feds go about dealing with future immigrants. Right now, it seems FSW Outland processing (at least from the security stage onwards) is paused, unfortunately.
