Dear Andrew Free:
Your FOIA request 2023-IGFO-00471 has been placed in DHS OIG queue for processing in the order in which it was received September 29, 2023. Although DHS-OIG’s goal is to respond within 20 business days of receipt of your request. Today, your request status is in the phase of searching for responsive records. We asked that you please allow DHS-OIG to continue the search process for your request. The actual time required to respond to your request depends on the number and types of responsive records identified and located in our records search. Unfortunately, we cannot predict exactly when your request will be processed, we currently have a large backlog of requests at this time. We estimate due to the large backlog DHS-OIG have today, your request could take up to an additional 8 months to complete. Please keep in mind this is only an estimate, documents could be release on or before the 8 months. If you care to narrow the scope of your request, please contact our office. We will make every effort to comply with your request in a timely manner.
We truly apologize for the delay processing your request.
Thank you,

That will make this four years of waiting. Does that comply with the “promptly available” language of 5 USC 552(a)(A)(3)?
