The USCIS want to clear their current pipeline ASAP so that they can process visas to millions of illegal immigrants with upcoming immigration reform.  (I suppose) This is good news to those applicants who have already secured their labor certificates through PERM. The way that the visa bulletin was moving before, it seemed like it would take at least 3 years to make it to 2005. But if the date continues to move faster, that day is not too far where one can have a GC in less than a year even for EB3.
