If you are planning to file I-130 or I-485 application, the table above will give you an idea of how many applicants are ahead of you.
Since USCIS goes by last receipt date, if you are going to file your I-485 (or just filed), you will be placed behind this queue. Exception is if application is preadjudicated then it would go by PD.
Note: USCIS also updated their processing time few days ago. Please see the link on right side of this page (under USCIS Links)
