Mr. Sampson,
As noted in our correspondence dated 24 Dec. 2013, your FOIA Case 75379 I currently in our backlog, pending assignment to a first level reviewer. All cases must go through two levels of review before we can make a release determination.
The NSA/CSS frequently receives referrals and consultations from other agencies that often pre-date the cases in our backlog queue. Other agencies, with similar backlogs, may have a case for a year or more before determining that they need to consult or refer their case to the NSA. When this happens, Department of Justice mandate requires this Agency to place a referral/consultation ahead of others. Therefore our backlog queue has a tendency to fluctuate over time with regard to where each FOIA case stands. This is also why it is difficult to provide an estimated response date as it could change.
We appreciate your patience as we work our FOIA cases in the order in which they were received, in accordance with established regulations.
Due to the significant increase in the volume of requests that this Agency is processing, we suggest you check back in 8-12 months.
Regards,
Cindy B

Dear Mr. Sampson
This email responds to the automated status checks submitted for Case 75379. The case is still in our complex backlog queue, pending assignment to a first level review. Please be advised that each case must go through two levels of review before a release determination can be made. Given the volume of our backlog and the fluctuation of queue placement due to consults from other agencies that predate your request, it's likely that your case may not be assigned to a first level review within the next 12 months. At this time, the estimated completion date is approximately 2-3 years.
We appreciate your patience thus far.
