I keep seeing different accounts of what the contract calls for. Some seem to require a new definition. Others appear to evaluate existing criteria. Do we actually know what it says?

I think that three different advocates who are lawyers have asked for it but, have not as yet received it.No, and we have been told it has not been released. However there is a legal issue that someone raised that they might have to release it, so I am not sure.
The contract would be large, detailed, and full of legalese. What we have is the Statement Of Work I think, which is short, vague and not explicit.

Is there a time limit of how long they can take with FOIA requests?I got the Statement of Work, and published it on September 30th. That's what most people are using, I think.
I filed a FOIA for the actual contract, but no response yet. I believe others have also filed FOIAs for it.
Not really. They have to "respond" in 20 days, but that just consists of giving you a case number. Fastest FOIA response I ever got was about a month. Longest is 15 months and counting . . . .
@jspotila , Patricia filed a FOIA by email on October 16 and sent a paper copy the next day. can i ask when you sent yours and by what delivery method.
This is getting to be really bad, obviously. We need to see that contract to see what other hidden pitfalls are out there.
I don't know, but maybe your members' of congress constituent aid office, or whatever its called, that helps constituents deal with the government could help you get a faster response.
