First, I'd wait to see if that date really stays unchanged -- from the various trackers (e.g. http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?p=947118#post947118) we know there are many cases well before 06/01/03 which haven't been processed yet. The VSC has posted "optimistic" dates in the past then reverted them a couple hours / days later.

Second, I believe you can't initiate an inquiry until they are 60 days past your case ND. So if your ND is 06/01/04, they'll need to hit 08/01/04 first Assuming they don't change the published processing date I wouldn't be surprised if they start to force people to wait 120 days or longer before accepting inquiry requests.

Personally, even if I had an ND of 04/01/04 and could theoretically initiate an inquiry, it's probably not worth it -- I'd give them at least a couple more months based on the tracker and on the stats at sites like rupnet.com.

Questions:

Does anyone know for sure whether they go off the RD or ND for processing cases -- I thought it was the ND but someone suggested earlier today that it's the RD (and the PD for labor substitution cases).

Also, haven't some people been told they can't initiate an inquiry until the number of days on the notice has passed?

I believe it is RD. Thats what it says in the "published dates" page.
 
I just dont get it !

You folks with ND's and RD's in 2003 are concerned ?

Here am I , Sept 2002.....FP1 done in Nov 2002, FP2 in Sept 2004.
What do you think I should do ?

Frankly, does anyone think this June 2003 date posted by VSC is serious ?
 
They enconutered their error and may take the Date back to Nov 12 2002. The Customer rep. just told me that the date you see on the website could be wrong and when she tried to do a case status inquiry for me, she was given flash on her screen saying that they are processing only Nov 2002 cases and couldnt initiate an inquiry.
 
Hi All,

I will wait another week to see if my case gets approved and then call.

Thanks

It hasn't changed

I tried to open an inquiry about my case also, and the lady told me that the date posted on the website was incorrect and that they were still processing Nov 12 I-485 applications from 2002. She also said that the website would be corrected before Nov 1 2004 to post the correct date of processing
 
There are lots of Jan to May 03 approvals in the past few weeks. So there is no reason to believe published dates are incorrect.

Let us also hope USCIS will go even faster after 60m increase in the 2005 budget.
