That's standard canned reply from USCIS...nothing much help!
 
Obviously USCIS personnel have been using all kinds of terms at their wish to describe case status: extended review, additional review, final review, you name it. Nobody knows whether they have specific meanings, most likely nothing. Scroll down to the bottom of this page to see more theories about USCIS extended review.
