Three years is a LONG time, but I do know that when names were submitted originally through TempleReady but completed in NFS temples that there is at least a 6 months lag between the work showing on the IGI and on NFS. It seems like a no-brainer to me that the IGI should update regularly to NFS (especially considering the volumes of temple work done in those Utah temples)..but it must be more difficult than we understand to do so. Or maybe they are waiting to bring everyone online and then just update the whole thing at once. In the mean time we are still duplicating work.....just like the bad decision to keep TempleReady comparing names to a 1999/2000 database. Ugh. Perhaps by 2020 it will all seem like ancient history, we won't be duplicating any more and it will be humming along nicely. We can only hope. Michele In a message dated 6/17/2009 4:45:40 P.M.

"Thank you for contacting FamilySearch Support regarding the three names for which you had sealing to parents ordinances performed in the Provo Temple. Thanks for including your personal information and the information on your three ancestors. We were able to sign in to nFS as a helper and verify that in fact all three names listed as "in progress" for the sealing to parent ordinances. We then checked the IGI index through FamilySearch and we were able to document that all three persons were sealed to their parents at the Provo Temple on the date that you gave. We then returned to nFS and searched for possible duplicates that could be combined for each of your three ancestors, and found nothing even close. "We are attaching knowledge document 102519 which gives further details about this process. Click anywhere on the blue link below for a document that answers your question. "We are dispatching your case to Data Quality at Church Headquarters for their review. Hopefully, in the near future, they will be able to review your situation, and hopefully offer a satisfactory resolution. "Document Links: Ordinances <https://help.familysearch.org/publishing/466/102519_f.SAL_Member.html> show in the International Genealogical Index (IGI), but they do not show, or they show as "Ready," in the new FamilySearch after combining data" The document link doesn't give anything further on my particular situation. This has to be resolved by the data quality people. This is what I was referring to earlier when I said that they use our feedback to find glitches and missing chunks in the system. I'll continue to wait. Hope this is helpful to others as well.

But in cases where you have cards that were originally processed in TempleReady then taken to a Temple with NFS, they show up immediately in NFS and show on the IGI as cleared - so there is no problem with duplicates. If you're checking for those names in NFS, the ordinances are done, and if you check them on the IGI, they are cleared so you wouldn't redo them, I hope. I can see why there is no hurry at this point to update the IGI since it's getting closer to having everyone on - and I hope it's really soon for those who aren't. Jill's problem is a little different. Those ordinances seem to have gotten lost in the system, but thankfully that's not the usual case.
