This indeed is great news, but this 90K visas are not 'reserved' for Schedule A. It will be distributed among all EB categories. My understanding is that Schedule A will get a share from this 90K quota as well, because the 50K 'special' for ScheduleA is intended to be used only if a visa number is not available anywhere else.
This is good news. Here is another link that would provide another 90,000 visas if approve by the US Senate.

NOT TILL THE END OF 2006 BUT CURRENT UNTIL FISCAL YEAR 2006.
The U.S. Fiscal Year 2006 started last October 1, 2005 and would end at September 30, 2006. If DOS states that Schedule A would only last til FY 2006 and these 50k visas will be gone by September 30, 2006 and NOT December 31, 2006.
We need new immigration laws. Hope the recapturing of the 90K and excemption of their families push through in the U.S. Congress!
Please support this bill. I urge everyone in the U.S. to e-mail their Senators and Congressmen and make them aware of the issue!
I hope the famous Spectrum Group will be helping too. This is the famous group that lobbied the 50k visas in the U.S. Congress!
More power to all!
