Mr. Sampson,
Retired records for the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs were searched and resulted in no responsive records located. Retired Post records were searched and resulted in no responsive records located. A search of the Central Foreign Policy Record located one record; the record is awaiting review. Each case is different and the processing time depends on the complexity of information requested, the location of the information, and the time it takes to review the records.
The estimated completion date (ECD)for this case is December 1, 2015.
ECDs are subject to change and are "strictly" estimates and not intended to be used as "actual" dates of completion, due to various extenuating factors, which are beyond the control of the Branch, which may or may not include coordination with other Agencies during the process (referrals, concurrences, etc.). Interim release dates are provided, as applicable.
