1.5 points. WY averages your points.

1.5. So you would be in the <2 category.

3 people with 5 total points comes to 1.6667, which would also be in the <2 category.

When do they usually update points after we buy them ?

there is no <2 category; the demand report is condensed for space and report length

they would have 1.6667, and be above the 1.5000 and below the 1.7500 point pools

points should be updated late this month

In Wyoming they average the points of the group that is applying. In your case it would be <2. They use a whole number value or a < value no matter what the decimal point value is.

You are mistaken, they average and round to 4 decimal places. Down from 5 decimal places a cpl years ago.

Could you supply a link to this I'd be very interested in reading that.

There is no link, it's a custom document I had them create that requires an FOIA request.

While you are correct that the preference points are averaged and carried to four decimals, I don't believe you have to have G&F "create a custom document". That information should be public knowledge. And, technically, a FOIA request applies to Federal documents only. For the State of Wyoming it would be a Wyoming Public Records Act (WPRA) request.

If you call a G&F Regional office and talk to the right person they will tell you the "rounding to four decimals" deal over the phone.

The document I posted for huntkook, then deleted, showed individual applicants and their points and was the custom document.
