From: Cristian Salazar
To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
Copy of any and all reports or memos issued in response to the Executive Order 13769 "Protecting The Nation From Foreign Terrorist Entry Into The United States,” Section 2, (a) “The Secretary of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Director of National Intelligence, shall conduct a worldwide review to identify whether, and if so what, additional information will be needed from each foreign country to adjudicate an application by a national of that country for a visa, admission, or other benefit under the INA (adjudications) in order to determine that the individual is not a security or public-safety threat.”
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Cristian Salazar

Good Afternoon,
Thank you for contacting the DHS Privacy Office. DHS Offices with potentially responsive records have been tasked and we are waiting for them to complete their search of records. Until we receive those records, we will not be able to give you an adequate estimated completion time for this request. We will be following up with the DHS Offices to ask for the status of their search this week and if any additional information is needed we will reach out to your directly. Thank you for your patience as we process your FOIA request.
