New matches for me as well. 3 dated 1/16 (Friday) but logged today (1/19 - Monday).

Okay. So Batch 603 is through ... but my father's kit in Batch 602 is still showing as 'waiting results'. Did the rest of Batch 602 come in? Is it time for me to query his results? Or is that whole batch still waiting?

I think there is sometimes an overlap with batches in terms of results, and I often wonder if the ones that come in earlier than others are ones that were upgrades on kits that were already in FTDNA's database from other tests like Y Dna etc, it may speed up things when it's an upgrade versus a whole new kit

[larzus]

Even thought they have only just shown up, I notice that most of the new matches are dated 16th Jan, with one dated 17th Jan. Perhaps they are still catching up.

Batch 602

I have an FF test on batch 602, still no results. If any of you got results from batch 602, please update.

Not in my family's case. The only FF tests that ran over time (7 weeks and 3 months) were the ones ordered from samples stored at FTDNA. No shipping, etc. to delay anything so I thought they'd be in on time for sure. Nope. The remaining 6 people whose kits I administer used brand new kits and all of their FF results came in well within the expected time frame.

Neither of the errant FF tests were impacted by big sales either. I have no clue what the problem was.

My husband's FF is in batch 602, and I am still waiting for the results.

[RandomGenie]

I have a FF test in batch 603, and it's not in yet. I think that batch is far from complete.

[BravoNovember]

I also have two FF tests in batch 603. However, no results as of yet.

My husband's FF is in batch 602, and I am still waiting for the results.

Of course, I just checked, and the results for my husband's FF batch 602 test just came in.

My dad's full sequence mtDNA came in today, which was in batch 600. His mt haplogroup apparently is U5b1c2b. We're still waiting for the 38-67 panels of his Y-111 upgrade, though, that was in batch 597.

And I'm still waiting for my mtDNA test results (though I was in batch 601).

Of course, I just checked, and the results for my husband's FF batch 602 test just came in.

Funny I read yours and my father-in-law's just came in same batch.

[larzus]

My Batch 602 Family Finder is in now, too What a relief!

No word yet on my Y-67 in Batch 599, but I'm happy to wait a bit longer for that one. I'd be very pleased to hear that those waiting on earlier batches had received their results before mine.

Since a few Y-DNA results seem to have come through in the past 24 hours, hopefully everything is beginning to happen!
