Good Morning Mr. Fernandes,
My apologies, but the ODNI FOIA office never received your below initial request. We have a statement on our website stating "FOIA requests submitted to dni-foia@dni.gov<mailto:dni-foia@dni.gov> between April 1, 2022 and April 7, 2022 were lost so if you submitted a request during that timeframe, please resubmit your request."
I have provided the link for reference: https://www.dni.gov/index.php/foia
However, ODNI will open your case today.
