I just thought that I'd test the system. I entered a case number that was approved Dec. 3, 2001. The status that it gave......that the application had been received on Oct. 24, 2001. It gave no indication that the petition had been approved.

At least for this one case, it is definitely not up to date. Just my observation...

Would you mind checking again?  I read on one of the immigration lawyer websites that the data is now current.

in regard to what it shows as the status for the case number that I entered.  I just checked again.  Obviously, I can't speak for the accuracy of the system in regard to any other cases.  But, based on what it shows for my case number, I would be a litte suspect of how accurate it is for other cases.  Personally, I have more confidence in the recorded telephone messages.  Although even with that, my (limited) experience has been that it sometimes takes a few days for that to be changed even after an approval notice has been mailed.
FWIW,
Don
