R591 uses the language "at the time the inquiry case was initiated", which to me means the time when the case started to exist, which, by definition, would be a time when it existed. In any case, no rule says the case comes to exist some time after it's "initiated", and precedent (as well as, IMO, common sense) indicates that they do exist at the appropriate time to make CFJs into their own existence TRUE.
