Here is what i found out:
She would not disclose the case info and asked to contact customer rep or serivce request.
she did say though that the 7/2 created a whole mess. what they are doing now is going through all the files that are approvable. my impression is that they have certain limited number of visas now and do want to use them up before the end of sept. cases with all the required elements will be approved, though i wonder how many visa numbers are available.
i did ask her specifically if i could expect more approvals before 10/1 and she said YES. this leaves us some hope. it will be a crap shot to see who actually has all the required elements in their file.
so the message is slightly on the good side, but each person's fate will be different, depending on who is lucky really!
