 • Cutting-edge technology has made everything  possible. Now it is easy to know your family  roots with DNA testing. Ancestry DNA comes  with a technology that finds someone's family  record through DNA testing. If you wish to  know about your ancestors, it is no more  challenging. Go to ancestry.com/dna,  purchase a DNA test kit, and activate it from  https://ancestrydnaloginuk.com/.

The process to activate Ancestry  DNA kit

 • If you have purchased your DNA kit and want to  send your DNA sample, wait. First, you will have  to activate the kit from ancestry.com/activate.  Once you reach this web address, you will need  to log in to your Ancestry account.

 • If you have logged in to your account, proceed  with the option Yes. If you aren't signed in yet,  proceed with option No. When you hit the No  option, you are prompted to the option called  Sign-in to activate your DNA kit. Here, you have  to fill in your correct login credentials; after  locating the Next button and tap it.

• If you have logged in to your account, proceed with the  option Yes. If you aren't signed in yet, proceed with option  No. When you hit the No option, you are prompted to the  option called Sign-in to activate your DNA kit. Here, you  have to fill in your correct login credentials; after locating  the Next button and tap it.

 • In this step, you will be asked to provide a 15-digit  activation code. Find the code from a tube or instruction  packet and enter it correctly in the relevant field. You no  need to use hyphens while typing the activation code. 

• On this page, you have three options to activate the kit. For  example, you can activate the kit for yourself and activate it  for a child or anyone else. So go with the right option.

• Enter your correct birth year and gender. 

• Hit the Next button in a dark-brown color.

 • Here, you will have a DNA Processing Consent  page seeking your permission for some  details. Go to the lower section of the screen  and tap on the Review and Consent option.  Then tap Next.

• If you want other DNA matches to find you, click the  appropriate option. If not then, hit No. In case you select  the Yes option, you will be included in your biological  family. If you don't want to, you can deny the option by  clicking No. No issue if you wrongly select something that  you didn't like. Your changes can be edited at any time in  the future. 

Ancestrydna.com/activate will ask if you want to display  your name or username, including ethnicity, location, and  more. If you hit Yes in the previous option, you will be  asked to show your name or username to your biological  matches. In case you tap No, you won't find this page on  the screen. 

• You are asked to manage what you want to show about  your ethnicity to your matches on this web page. Tap the  right option based on what you need.

• Ancestry DNA will also want to send updates for your  test if you opt. You can also allow text updates by  choosing Yes. To get updates, you need to provide your  phone number.

 • Ancestry also wants to send you weekly emails about  your biological matches and relatives. Tap Yes or No  according to your preference.

 • Take a look at the information you have provided to  Ancestry and hit the Submit, and activate the button. 

• To view updates about the test, access DNA from any  webpage of Ancestry and select the Your DNA Results  Summary option. ancestrydna.com/activate

How to troubleshoot when your result takes more time? 

If you are waiting for your test result, you should know how long Ancestry  will take to publish your test result on the website. After collecting the  sample, when you mail it to the company, it takes up to five weeks to  reach. Once the company gets the DNA sample, they take up to eight  weeks to prepare the final result. If you find the status bar on your DNA  homepage is incomplete after spending more than five weeks, you should  contact Ancestry DNA support.

 What to do when you find your DNA result is missing? 

If your DNA homepage or Health dashboard shows ads instead of showing  a status bar, kindly ensure that you have logged in with your account  associated with the activated test kit. Note that a DNA sample requires up  to five weeks to reach Ancestry. After that, Ancestry DNA processes the  result in the next eight weeks. After this duration, if you notice your  results aren't available on the website or haven't received any email  regarding your result, contact Ancestry DNA support. What to do when you don't get emails from ancestry.com/activate

• First, you have to verify your email address from the Ancestry  Account credentials page. Ancestry removes that email address if  they send emails and the emails are rejected by the email service  provider. You need to make sure whether you are logged in to  receive emails or not by visiting the Notifications settings page.  Moreover, if you are using the correct email address and also you  are logged in to get emails, the problem may be with the email  provider.

  • Go to the spam folder of your email account and look for Ancestry  email. 

 • Please ensure that you haven't blocked Ancestry from receiving  emails. 

 • Try to keep Ancestry on a safe senders list. 

 • Contact Ancestry or your email provider for more help.

 • Change your current Ancestry email address with a new one.
