OK... So I have a question...

Total approved HITs is greater than 1000
6793 You meet this qualification requirement

HIT approval rate (%) is greater than 99
99 You do not meet this qualification requirement

Location is US
US-CAY You meet this qualification requirement

My hit approval rate is 99.7211% so how come that is not greater than 99?

MTurk math. "Greater than 99" means ONLY 100.

Because the quals count whole numbers only. By that standard 99.7% is equal to 99% but not greater than 99%

It's not consistent. Some accounts are able to get it changed and others aren't. It seems to be connected somehow to when you set up your Amazon Payments account and/or MTurk account, with "older" accounts not being able to be changed but no one knows how old "older" is in this case.
