+ = Revised to reflect more accurate counting by the GDRP. For example RTRs revised to include both RTR due to failure to pay user fees and RTR due to technical reasons.
++ = Starting FY15 ANDA Original Receipts are reported as raw receipts (versus filed receipts).
+++ = FY 15 Controls have been revised to count only those requests appropriate for a control.
++++ = Cumulative and NOT specific to the month. DMF raw receipts have been eliminated since DMF Completeness Assessments present a more accurate indication of workload.
Numbers are rounded and do not reflect actual numbers for Congressional reporting purposes.
Note: Amendment metrics for April, May, June, July, August and September will be forthcoming
