They are all assumptions
to keep our tension in check.
But, it looks like a batch....in reality..it is just the result of spreading the 485 applications among LAZY officers - FASTEST Officers....each one process at their own time....when lazy officers are stuck with March or prior applications, some smart ones (Workholics) finish their work quickly, will go and pick next set of 485 appications...so as a result it looks like they are processing 4/5/6....if you see the approvals, they are spread anywhere from 11/12 of 2001 to 1/2/3/4/5/6 of 2002 .........so next one won\'t be a 7/8/9 batch processing, but it will be 1/2/3/4/5/6/7 with addition of another months of applications.....it could stuck in 7 for a while as there is shit load of people in July ....
