In my previous post, I expressed my fears about processing changes that might be in effect as well for PR applications. Well, from what we've been seeing these days, it looks like they are giving priority to outland applicants right now.
Again, see the link for
temporary processing changes. At this point, the site timestamp is irrelevant as it was updated again. It's not an old announcement. It's clear that the processing changes were released on April 29. I don't think it's a coincidence not seeing approvals for inland applicants since April 30.
I'm not writing this to bring inland applicants down. Instead, I encourage you guys to read carefully, analyze the trends on this forum and immitracker, make your own judgements without being too assertive on others, and to take any action you think it's the most appropriate to your situation (or no action if you can afford it).
