Just so, how long is FBI FOIA?
Under the law, all federal agencies are required to respond to a FOIA request within 20 business days, unless there are “unusual circumstances.” This time period generally begins when the request is received by the FOIA office of the Department of Justice component that maintains the records sought.
What happens when you report someone to the FBI?
The FBI will ask you to provide as much information as possible about the perpetrator and details of the threat you have experienced. The FBI will ask for your contact information to follow‐up with you if needed. The FBI will attempt to protect your identity and confidentiality.

Why would a person have a FBI number?
An FBI number is simply assigned to someone who’s fingerprints and/or criminal record has been submitted to their database. Only you know if you are doing something that the FBI might be interested in. Just having a number has no special significance.
