Most likely not CURRENT as DOS already has a huge pipeline of pending cases, no need to create demand. Still hoping it would have a significant forward movement.

Absolutely no.

What happened last year was unusual. Look at all the VBs for prior months and years.

The PD for the F2a category was recently rolled backed by more than a year to reduce the number of applicants for the limited visas.

There is no way that the F2a category will be current in August or anytime soon.
