What's wrong with my sentence?

Suppose a person, say, an immigration applicant, is sending a letter of clarification to the immigration authority regarding the processing of his case which came to a halt recently, not through the fault of the applicant but through a misunderstanding at the immigration office.

and he wants to end the letter on a note that, since it wasn't his fault that his case was came to a temporary halt, he wishes to see his case be considered and processed as if nothing ever happened, date-wise.

To express that thought, I came up with a sentence that goes something like this:

"I respectfully request that my case be considered as from the date it was first opened."

and I am not happy with the bold part.

Does "as from" work in the sentence? Does "considered" sit well with what follows it? Would there be a more neat way to phrase it? (By the way, I am not particularly fond of using "delays")

I would greatly appreciate any helps I could get from our English experts.
