I've gone through all security from tfs, to sharepoint to reporting services and even in report server databases (gave max permission) a user can possibly have and still getting the same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This issue may be comes up the TFS SP1 and when Clients Visual Studio dont have or may have SP1 but Team Explorer is installed later on. Just Re-Install Visual Studio Service Pack 1, Check it here; http://www.learnfreex.com/techno/tf03177-team-project-creation-failed/
