what the process for getting a halfway house date is?

i am very confused? was wondering what the process for getting a halfway house date is? unit team manager made the recommendation of 6 to 9 months hh! so it went from there it went to warden who approved it then to region. he went and talk to someone today who told him that region approved it but that is all they said. that it would be up to hh now? if someone could explain the process i would greatly appreciate it!
