Case update accuracy - which site to go with

Hello,

Can any one clarify which site should be followed for accuracy on case updates. 

Traditionally, I used https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do to get an update on my case once my lawyer shared the WAC number with me. Recently I heard from a colleague that USCIS is no longer actively updating the above site and instead I should be looking at: https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/ for accurate updates.

On hearing the above, I visited this new site, got an account created and added my case using the WAC# provided and see an update saying "Your Case has been approved" however, when I enter the WAC number in the regular egov (provided above) website, it throws an error "WAC is invalid".

I reached out to my lawyer asking for an update on my case and his reply was "I have no update from USCIS yet on your case"

So, which of these 2 sites should I trust ? and should I be concerned if my WAC does not show-up on the regular egov website ?

Note: I have applied for extension in premium processing and the 15 calendar-day clock completed yesterday, but my lawyer still says that he did not get any update on my case from USCIS.

Any suggestion on which site to rely are much appreciated as I have contradicting information showing up.

Thanks !!
