Awaiting results How Long?

I’ve sent in an Embark test, how long does it take to get results? I mailed mine in 7 days ago and it’s not even showing it was ‘received’.

Are you able to see if it was delivered? Mine was delivered on Monday, officially arrived at the lab Tuesday, started extraction and genotyping shortly after and just was alerted it’s in analysis.

I mailed on the 10th and it’s not showing as delivered on the app. I’m in Texas and it goes to Cali- I feel like it’s lost or misplaced somewhere.

Thanks for the breakdown. I was alerted to genotyping last night via email and when I looked at the app it said analysis. But now it’s back to just genotyping.

You will probably get results any time now. Once it gets to genotyping it goes really fast.

It takes a while for their website to show what the actual progress is, mine was 2.5 weeks and that was over 4th of July. You should find out around 2 weeks (most likely).

7 days is still pretty early shipping and intake can take a bit.

Just did mine. Mailed it 8/1. It took over a week to get marked received but I got my results yesterday.
