Upgrade from Y111
Ordered 04/24/2022
Batched 04/25/2022

Today my Order History page is blank. All past orders, going back to 2011, and gone... Batch number I can't remember either 1193 or 1293.

[mabrams]

most likely batch 1293 I ordered a BigY for a relative last November and that was batch 1249.

BigY turnaround is 9 to 11 weeks, via FTDNA GAP memo on June 16.

Hopefully your order page has been restored.

Well my order page is still blank, and now I got an email saying it failed (at about week nine and two days) so it will probably be another 6-10 weeks... My Y-111 about ten years ago took 3-5 months, IIRC, because they also needed to do a Deep Clade I think.

How do these Big Y test usually roll out? I upgraded from a Y-37 and it batched the same day on 6/20/22. On 7/8/22 the STR panel and Y-DNA matches went to 111-STRs and my Order History says Big Y completed on that same date. Obviously the Big Y is not completed as I have no SNP/haplotype results. Is this normal? I left a message inquiring because I don't know if there was a mix up and it was confused with a Y-111 only. I was not expecting results until late September. Not sure how I'm supposed to interpret that.

Yes, it means you’re right on track. Batches close Mondays and Wednesdays, and the full 111 STRs are released 18 days later if you are upgrading from 67 or lower. There’s no notification, just that weird status change to completed in the order history. I think it’s a bug after they made some changes earlier. But your Big Y should be well underway, so just a freebie before the full results in August/September.

It is the same for my relative for which I ordered an upgrade from Y37 to Big Y, incidently on the very same day as you, 20th of June. Does it really need another month and more until the full results are ready?
My relative and I should form a new branch, with our last common ancestor being born before 1800 and we are at a distance of 3 on the 111.

Big Y-700	Batched	06/08/2022	1306

My order history also disappeared for a couple weeks but reappeared a few days ago. I had already done y-111, and my panels 112-561+ are not yet populated.

Wish I had a Big Y-700 bun in the oven. Got a distant cousin whose Big Y-700 would go a long way toward refining my maternal grandfather’s terminal SNP, but he doesn’t want to spend the money on it.

I'm profile manager for my brother kit 45062, R-FT377519. His results were completed 13 July 2022. Odd that he only has a few matches at this level.

How long did you wait for the final result since his sample arrived at FTDNA?

Don't remember exactly and not seeing the order hx on his profile page, but it was about 6 weeks.

You want it. You pay for it.

[Stevo]

You want it. You pay for it.

I don’t want it that badly. Believe me, I’ve been at this a long time. I’ve already paid for the tests of enough relatives.

One thing I’ve learned is that if a person doesn’t care enough to pay for his own test,
you’re not going to get much cooperation out
of him, one way or the other.

[Börum]

The result for my relative is ready, but the manual assignment, we should form a new subclade, is not done yet. How long does that need?
