For anyone wondering if it now takes longer to get results back from
FTDNA than earlier, here is my (very limited) experience. The dates
are the dates when FTDNA notified me that a kit had been returned and
when they notified me that the results had been posted. The number of
days is the Julian date subtraction performed by EXCEL and includes
weekends and holidays. It suggests that there has been some slowdown,
for whatever good reasons, and that the number of markers is not a
serious factor. I've got six or eight more tests in progress so it
will be interesting to see if the trend holds over the next couple of
months. Anyone have similar data?
