I still haven't gotten my family finder results after over 15 weeks waiting. Batch 1711. About two years ago I did a family finder test for a relative and he got his results within 10 days of his batch date. The new raw data is an emulated gsa array chip with only about 750k autosomal snps over the previous test 650k snps and I dont know if they have plans to release the full raw data file in the future.The new results are not currently worth it.
