Dear All,

I mailed a FOIA request as well as a letter of protest (about a "failed" poly) maybe about a month and a half ago to the FBI in D.C..  I know both letters were delivered because I sent them certified mail with return receipt (postcard).   

As of yet zero response...no letter, no phone messages... any ideas on what to do?  It's now about two months since I took the poly and I don't want time to drag on too much...any advice?

By the way, I only know they were delivered due to the tracking number, I strangely never got back the official certified-receipt postcard...very unusual...

Yours Truly

If the information on the FBI website is current, you can follow up on the status of your records request by calling Debbie Lopes, the FBI's FOIPA Public Information Officer, at 1-540-868-4593.

Howdy all,

Wanted to get back and let everyone know how things went.  I finally got my certified receipts (postcards) back, but after TWO MONTHS.  I never had them take that long before.  The phone number provided by Mr. Maschke above indeed does work.  It was a guy, not Debbie, but he was courteous and answered my questions.  Soon after I got my certified receipts back, I did indeed get a letter from the FBI.  So, the whole process is slowwwweeeer than molasses, but at least things are moving.  Many thanks Mr. Maschke.

Yours Truly
