My Coc has been very supportive throughout this whole process. My Chief Clerk is also really switched on IMO and has been extremely helpful throughout this and many other things for me and other members of the unit. I just don't want to bother the Chief Clerk as I know they are working on more pressing matters. Plus they did their part, they emailed DCMPG 5, DCMPG 5 read it but never responded. The change may have been actioned, it may not have who knows. :facepalm: Obviously at some point (A few weeks) i will need to email the CC again and ask them to follow up with DCMPG-5.
Just to shed some light when you apply all you get is this.

The only time I've emailed that email was to say that my Chief Clerk was changing and gave a new name. They did respond and said my file was updated accordingly.
I applied back in March 2014 and this where I stand almost a year later.. It is frustrating, but it is what is.. I should note that my preferred transfer date isn't until 1/1/2016 as that is when I am done school. That is likely attributing to the speed in which stuff is being processed, but even my friends who are ideally looking to transfer in may, they've all heard nothing and we all applied around the same time.
Edit: missed a word
