As a new hire I was assigned the ERJ. I put no preference. If I wanted to transfer to the CRJ could I do so before my year anniversary? I've only been here 6 months.

Look at your standing bid and see if it has a seat lock date. It should tell when you're able to bid over.

Odds are it'll be a two year seat lock since no preference is a choice to them. I stopped fighting it and will just wait a few more months

The FAA imposed an age cutoff of 32 years old by date of hire for Air Traffic Controllers. That, would be age discrimination. The only exception to this is if you're a military veteran eligible for the Phoenix 20 program which stipulates that you are eligible for FAA employment if you've completed 20 years of service in your respective branch of service.
It's why the FAA created the abysmal and now defunct CTO program. Shortage of Controllers who eventually had an 85+% washout rate.
