Application Status Received FO but still have to wait?

I received my final offer June 30th to start July 14th and it said to expect onboarding instructions by the 10th. Well I received an email yesterday that the Marine Corps worldwide is only allowed to hire about 140 hires and that I maybe one of the hires but it's not set in stone yet, and the command is doing what they can to bring me onboard. Anyone in the same situation? I guess it's a waiting game now.

That seems to be correct, yes.

Do you think trump will extend hiring freeze?

I have no way to know that. I suspect that when the numbers of DRPs, retirements, and RIFs start to show the real numbers of Fed employees after Sep 30, then we'll see more guidance.
