Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

Indefinite Probation

I'm living in WV Interstate compact), but was convicted of a crime in VA. I have served my sentence and my probation date is listed as indefinite. I asked my probation officer what that means and he says that means they are only waiting on his report. When I aked if he has heard back, he said no, but sometime he doesn't. I have no idea what to make of that answer. All I want to know if this probation is really indefinite. I have been on probation for a year and have always been in compliance. Also, all court fees and fines are paid in full. Thank you.

such probation in your particular case

has now terminated.
