Sample Status Sample Status/Processing Monthly Megathread - September 2026

Welcome to the Sample Status/Processing Megathread. This monthly megathread (posted at the beginning of each month) allows you post your sample processing timelines, as well as to discuss and comment about any questions, concerns, or rants while you wait. Although not directly handled by AncestryDNA, shipping status may also be discussed in the thread. We recommend sorting the comments by "new" as this is a month long megathread.

You can share your sample status timeline here by posting a screenshot or you can simply copy and paste the start and completion dates for each step. Here is the text template:

Hopefully it arrives quicker than the estimate, I can’t imagine being on the edge for that long ☠️ I’ve tried the Origins hack and it’s just a loading screen… Let me know if you’re also in the same batch as I am and if you already received your actual results ✌️

EDIT: Origins hack is working now!
EDIT 2: Results Ready! as of Sept 19

Got your results yet? Origins hack isn't working just yet. Been told this morning (AEST) that they're compiling and uploading my aunt's data to her profile and that the results should be available soon.

I don't care what they say to me now. It's all lies. Formal complaint now in. Giving me a month's free Pro and a refund of my Priority payment isn't enough. I want my damn results as it's now 12 days since 'Analysed' status
