There are signs that FTDNA may have made some changes at the lab to reduce the turn-around time. The most recent test in our project (Batch 640) was completed in 6 weeks. Compared to the old days at Relative Genetics/Ancestry of two weeks it is still slow, but compared to the more recent 10 to 12 weeks minimum it is a significant improvement! -- Orin Wells 253-630-5296
>From what I have seen the turn around times depend on the type test or number of Y-panels ordered rather than the batch number which is only based on the sample's arrival date at the lab. My g-granddaughter's Mtdna Full Sequence recently arrived at the lab and is in batch 646, estimated completion 12/02/2015 - 12/16/2015 (I expect her results sooner than the estimate).
