Iraqi news is broadcasting that agreements have been met within Baghdad to allow funding from the budget to Kurdistan. The budget-based payments are stated to be retroactive back to January of this year. (Could this be the "last stitch" needed to "sew this up" and move onward?)

Even though several bank sources are projecting to be exchanging us by the end of this week, other intel sources are focused on "by the end of this month."

Time Will Tell!!
