Still no update.

I did find this information:

Mine has changed quite a bit and seems a lot more in line with my known ancestry now. My known ancestry is I’m a full southern Italian/Sicilian. My original results listed me as 73% Italian/Greek, 13% middle eastern, 10% Caucasus, 1% Spanish, <1% of North African, European Jewish, British. Now my ancestry is 92% Italian, 8% Turkey and Caucasus. My guess is a lot of what they classify as Italian is hiding the middle eastern genes. All in all it I’m happy for the update and just confirms What I’ve always known. Lol.

How long did it take until your ancestry.com admixture estimations were updated the way the original poster wrote about?

I tried doing what the OP (original poster) wrote to get the updated estimate; but the page would not load and gave me some error, and there was no quiz/questionnaire. I am hesitant to answer the quiz or questionnaire on the main page of the Ancestry DNA section of their site, since I took another questionnaire on some other DNA testing site which I cannot remember the name of, and I answered one of the questions wrong and could not go back and change it. :-|

I have done genealogy for both my parents, grandparents on both sides of the family, and gone back many generations in what are now modern day European countries-in most cases I was able to find records from long before they are the modern day unified countries they are today; but I have been learning about my family's ancestry and doing basic genealogy since I was very young.

Does anyone know when Ancestry.com/s DNA estimates officially update?

Weird. I'm 1/8 Sicilian, but I only get 1% Italian on the new test. My 1/4 mom gets 8%.
