Lafelx,
I did read the entire thread and am aware that around page 2 or 3 it was stated that the hold is for terminal/tracon applicants, however some people might not read that far, and read like 1/2 dozen posts and freak out.
Fwiw, it took 5 months between receiving my TOL and FOL, so I obv waited quite a while, even though I was given confirmation my clearances were issued approx 3 weeks after completing the SF86 and my medical exam.
I think they make you wait on purpose to see if you really care enough to actually want the position. Just my .02.
