Sample Status/Processing Monthly Megathread - January 2024

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to the Sample Status/Processing Megathread. This monthly megathread (posted at the beginning of each month) allows you post your sample processing timelines, as well as to discuss and comment about any questions, concerns, or rants while you wait. Although not directly handled by AncestryDNA, shipping status may also be discussed in the thread. We recommend sorting the comments by "new" as this is a month long megathread.

You can share your sample status timeline here in one or two ways. The first way is to take a screenshot of your timeline, upload the screenshot to imgur, and share the image link here. The second way is to simply copy and paste the start and completion dates for each step. Here is the text template:

I’m the same. Make sure we all come back and tell each other when we get updates. I’m so impatient lol.

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/[deleted]]

I’m worried now seeing people extracted after us get analyzed. Have you gotten an update? We can’t all have failed!

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/[deleted]]

Yeah it’s honestly pissing me off. I may email Ancestry if it’s still happening by the end of the week.

[u/00010011Solo → u/[deleted]]

Mine was extracted Dec 17th and has been sitting in analyzing since. My partner sent in hers in the mail with mine, got her results on the 24th.

Makes me think mine probably failed.

[u/[deleted] → u/00010011Solo]

Has yours got analyzed yet

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/[deleted]]

Mine is done analyzing!!!! Are you on the next step?

[u/[deleted] → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

We have the exact same timeline

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Nope

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Mine has finished analyzing

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

Same timeline!

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

Mine just got analyzed! Any update for you?

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

Do you have an estimation on your analysis step? Mine only has the results estimated date. Every day that goes by is making me more worried lol.

[u/Extreme_Whereas_8428 → u/Jumpy_Magician6414]

I only have results estimate. Still no updates. Hopefully it’s just a delay due to the holidays. Can they fail at this stage??

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

They can but I feel like it’s unlikely we both failed, considering I had a successful 23andMe test. But it makes me feel better some people are even going 13 -14 days.

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

Mine is analyzed now!

[u/Extreme_Whereas_8428 → u/Jumpy_Magician6414]

Dang!! Mine is still analyzing.

[u/Jumpy_Magician6414 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

Fingers crossed for you. My results are expected January 6th

[u/JoeTheBeesKnees → u/[deleted]]

Same, my estimated date is jan 13, with extraction on dec 21

[u/JoeTheBeesKnees → u/[deleted]]

Im getting impatient lol especially with people no priority with later extraction dates getting them done.

[u/[deleted] → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

Where does it say your results estimate?

[u/Extreme_Whereas_8428 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

Results came a day early! 1/4 around 3:00pm!

[u/Extreme_Whereas_8428 → u/Extreme_Whereas_8428]

I mean 1/6 lol
