A quick definition of BTS:

Term: BTS

Definition: BTS stands for two different things. The first one is BORDER AND TRANSPORTATION SAFETY DIRECTORATE, which is a group that helps keep people safe when they travel. The second one is BUREAU OF TRANSPORTATION STATISTICS, which is a group that collects information about how people travel and use transportation.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: BTS is an abbreviation that can stand for two different things:

  1. BORDER AND TRANSPORTATION SAFETY DIRECTORATE
  2. BUREAU OF TRANSPORTATION STATISTICS

The Border and Transportation Safety Directorate is a government agency that works to keep our borders and transportation systems safe. They might be responsible for things like screening people and goods that come into the country, or making sure that airplanes and trains are secure.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics is another government agency, but their focus is on collecting and analyzing data about transportation. They might look at things like how many people are using public transportation, or how many cars are on the road.

Here are some examples of how these two different meanings of BTS might be used:

  • The BTS is responsible for collecting data on how many people use public transportation in the United States.
  • The BTS is working with the Border and Transportation Safety Directorate to make sure that people and goods coming into the country are screened properly.

These examples show how BTS can refer to two different government agencies with different responsibilities. One focuses on collecting data, while the other focuses on keeping our borders and transportation systems safe.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
