The processing time, as per the FOI Act, commences on the day after the agency receives the request - not after the agency "finds" the request.
You received the request on 22 January. As for why you were unable to find it, please refer to your IT department.
The decision is deemed refused so please seek an OAIC extension under s15AC to maintain review rights.
As for the request, please do not paraphrase and use the request exactly as I had made it (note the date of the first version).
