U.S. State Department Commentary About Employment Visa Availability

Many of the Employment cut-off dates have continued to advance more rapidly than might ordinarily be expected.  This is a result of consultations with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) regarding their pending demand, which is currently using approximately 90% of all Employment numbers.  USCIS has indicated that they would prefer to review a substantial number of cases at this time to ensure that number use in the various categories can be maximized.  Should USCIS projections of the resulting number use prove to be incorrect it may be necessary to adjust the cut-off dates during the final quarter of FY-2008.
