You are probably lucky Diana. We have a member in the I-P109 project who has been waiting since the 11th of sept. (Expected result date). He is most probably positive. This goes in the same direction to your suspicion about FTDNA research.  Nicolas -------- Original message -------- From: Diana Gale Matthiesen <[email protected]> Date: To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [yDNAhgI] slow-fast return of SNP test results > From: Peterson, Phillip R. > Sent: Wednesday, January 01, 2014 10:08 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [yDNAhgI] Y-DNA-HAPLOGROUP-I Digest, Vol 9, Issue 2 > > I'll be surprised if FTDNA delivers anywhere near their reported deadline, > since I've been waiting 3 months for a single SNP which was supposed to be > resulted one month ago.  They haven't even bothered to update the estimated > due date. It depends.  I ordered L1439 on 12/14 and had a result by 12/31! I know I was told once that they "gang" these tests, so the more people ordering them, the sooner a batch is run.  Also, I suspect FTDNA's own research interests affect how quickly a test gets done.  Considering how fast this L1439 result came back, I suspect they're interested in fixing its position in the tree, too. Or, I may have just been lucky and got included in a batch that was ready to roll.
