You pass, lefty opens 1NT (15-17), partner doubles showing a single-suited hand, righty bids 2♦ (transfer), duly completed by lefty and passed back to you.
You have ♥Jx and no singleton or void. What else, if anything, do you want to know about your hand to decide whether to balance?

Does "single suited" mean either 5 or 6+ cards? If the latter then do I have 2+♠ and 3+ of both minors?

The only other thing needed apart from Jx in hearts are the remaining 11 cards.
