Announcement #68, August 7, 1996

We have been notified that one MDE received but did not complete its process of
approximately 9,000 applications. These applications had original receipt dates of June
28 through July 15. All these original and renewal applications were mailed to the
Cahokia, Illinios processing address. Approximately 7,500 were processed last week
(July 26), and the remaining 1,500 were transmitted to the Central Processing system
(CPS) by August 4. In addition, approximately 10,000 applications were received at the
Mt. Vernon processing site in late June, however, due to a system malfunction, these
records were not computed at the CPS. These records were included
in the compute for Monday, August 5 and ISIRs will be available by Thursday,
August 8.

All other processing has remained within the contractual turnaround times. The
following is an update to the 1996-97 processing statistics:
