We have received your request for an estimated date of completion. The search for records is ongoing or, the search has yielded responsive records and those records have been forwarded to the backlog, where it awaits assignment to a Government Information Specialist (GIS).
Estimated dates of completion are based on the median processing time of large requests. Accordingly, the estimated date on which the FBI will complete action on your request is 475 days from the date of your request.
Please contact me if you require further assistance.
Thank you,
Note: The GIS reviews the records to determine if any redactions are required pursuant to subsections of Title 5, U. S. Code, Section § 552 and 552a. If no records are located, the requester is also notified.
