Analysis
This was an eagerly
anticipated Visa Bulletin, but it disappointed.
MU continues to believe that the State Department will need to
aggressively accelerate the dates in the next few months in order to ensure
that all visas are used in fiscal year 2020.
The fact that the State Department did not include any comments at the
end of the Visa Bulletin, after such a long delay in publication, was also
discouraging. MU will be asking
questions to the DOS in order to try and get more answers. We will publish those answers as they become
available.
