Yeah, I am hoping that these new transfers to TSC mean that they're almost done with the ones they transferred last month. I think I have about 1 more week's worth of this unwavering optimism left before I become officially bitter, haha! Let's hope we're all approved tonight!

I called TSC to check on status of the VSC transfers. I had submitted on Jan 07 2013..
The service agent said things are moving very quickly and my answer could come any day. He also mentioned that things look pretty good because there has not been a FRE, explaining if there was going to be an FRE I would have prob seen it by now. I would like to add the gentleman was very nice patient and professional!
