Federal inmates go to a meeting that they call "team". The inmates sits with their counselor, case manager and unit team manager. They evaluate the progress of the inmate over the six months. There are NO transfers until 18 months. With three "clean team" meetings the inmate may apply for reclassification of custody status. The status must change before the inmate will be granted a lower designation.
