A quick definition of motion to correct inventorship:

Term: Motion to Correct Inventorship

Definition: A motion to correct inventorship is a request made during a patent application process to add one or more inventors who were not originally named. This request is usually made in an interference proceeding. If the request is granted, the unnamed inventors will be added to the patent application. However, if there is a valid reason not to add them, the motion may be denied.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A motion to correct inventorship is a request made in a patent interference proceeding to add one or more unnamed coinventors to the patent application. This motion will be granted unless there is evidence to suggest that the proposed inventor(s) did not contribute to the invention.

Example: Let's say that John and Jane filed a patent application for a new type of solar panel. However, they later discovered that their colleague, Bob, had also contributed to the invention. In this case, John and Jane could file a motion to correct inventorship to add Bob to the patent application as a coinventor.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a motion to correct inventorship can be used to add a previously unnamed coinventor to a patent application. In this case, John and Jane realized that Bob had contributed to the invention and wanted to ensure that he received credit for his work. By filing a motion to correct inventorship, they could add Bob to the patent application as a coinventor.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
