Transfers are strange. If a store isn't hiring it likely won't take transfers. On the surface transfers look great because it's like you can "shop" for whichever location you want. Unfortunately, that's not really the case. For a transfer to go through the SM's of the two stores have to do a fair amount of communication and even if your destination store is hiring, the SM has the freedom to simply deny the transfer.
SMs have a lot on thier plate right now, lots of meetings and conference calls they have to handle on top of constantly micro managing the schedules. Be patient and keep asking.
Also, I'd really recommend not transferring into a store to *become* an SSV. Older partners at stores don't take to well to having a new face show up and tell them what to do.
