The advantage on doing your mother mtdna instead of yours is that once you do any tests for her, her dna will be stored and you will be able to do other future tests for her

Here is a post where ftdna missed the major branch even with y-111:

Probably, these days, ftdna is always able to do a prediction without snp testing, the question is how good is this prediction...

Revolver, the answer to your question is for sure NO.

Y STR do predict your general haplogroup but do not confirm it. There are many cases where FTDNA do need at least Y-37 to do a good prediction.

It looks normal. While you share some dna with your sister and nephew, your dna is different than their's.

You can also transfer your Family Finder data from FTDNA to MyHeritage:

Because they are closed family members, an autosomal test (like family finder) is enough.

If you only tested y12 and for whatever reasons you don't want to upgrade to Big-Y, then you should go with y67 upgrade. It is true that it will not give you a more refined haplogroup, however you may find matches that did Big Y and their haplogroup it is a clue on what your haplogroup could be

If you received your results recently then it is likely that the manual review has not been done. After manual review your haplogroup may change
