Many factors may contribute to the time required to process your request; however, the greatest single factor is the number of documents associated with your request. Once your files have been evaluated as potentially responsive, your request will be forwarded to the "perfected backlog", where your request will wait for assignment to an analyst. You may inquire as to the status of your request by calling the FBI's FOIPA Public Information Center at 540-868-4593. Sincerely yours, Section Chief, Record/Information Dissemination Section Records Management Division EFTA00726671
