Record time?

[sarahmj]

I just received results for my Mum's kit from batch 583 that was batched 13 days ago
Still waiting on my Dad's but way to go FTDNA!

I'm glad for you!

I'm having the opposite experience. My mom submitted her sample in March (batch 563) and six months later we still don't have any results

Still, at least it's good to know the service is working for some people (I'm trying not to be bitter lol).

Are you talking about Family Finder or mtFull Sequence ?

[CManczuk]

mtDNA full sequence. Does it take 6 months??

It should only take 8 weeks for mtFull sequence.

[Sarmat]

My mtDNA sequence took almost 8 months.

My mtDNA sequence took almost 8 months.

Correction: 7 months.

Man, that is a long time! I'm sorry to hear that.

It was typical at the time. There were people waiting much longer than I did.

I'm waiting for Big Y results now. It has said they'd be here in '1-2 weeks' for about 4 weeks now. You'd think I'd learn...

[CManczuk]

LOL Well, thank you guys. Knowing all this I think I will lower my expectations and have a better day. I was having a bit of a meltdown yesterday over the matter.

I know it can be frustrating. Personally, I just keep reminding myself that I've gone my whole life thus far without knowing these results, so a few more weeks don't really matter in the long run.

It's normal for Family Finder. Mine took 14 days.

Mine took 4 weeks. I'm starting to think it depends on how many matches you have....the more matches, the longer it takes?

I think it's depend on the quality of the samples. I mean they didn't tell us if the test is failed. They just redo the test and we have to wait.

I wouldn't day that 14 days is normal. I think you got lucky. I have ordered and administrate 5 FF tests. The quickest took 19 days, the longest took 35. Most of them were in the mid-20s. Ordering during a sale will take longer in general.
