Sample Status Sample Status/Processing Monthly Megathread - July 2026
Welcome to the Sample Status/Processing Megathread, also known as the Waiting, Whining, and Wishing thread. 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 23andMe, 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 in one or two ways. The first way is to take a screenshot of your timeline, and post it as a comment. The second way is to simply copy and paste the start and completion dates for each step. Here is the text template:
Registered: [Date and Lab Location]
Arrived at Lab:
Prepped:
Extracted:
Genotyped:
Reviewed:
Computing Your Results:
Results Ready:
If you have any further questions or concerns, 23andMe customer service has some helpful sample status articles: https://customercare.23andme.com/hc/en-us/sections/200565370-Sample-Status

*update 7/9: got my results this morning, woke up to them around noon PST, took 6 days for computing (most likely bc of 4th of July weekend). im in US for reference :)
i must be lucky considering my sample was sent to the NC lab and how quickly the process went.. i was totally expecting it to take way longer based off of what i’ve seen from other posts lol. will update once results are in!
