Mine took about 3 wks. The report was fairly extensive because i was the first in my family to be tested. My sister's and daughter's testing I believe just came out to pos or neg and this is because they looked at thousands of genes for me and once they found the defect, that is all they had to look for for my sisters and daughter.
