I don't think anyone transfers samples. The transferred results that FTDNA handles are specifically results >from Ancestry.com and 23andMe.com because they use the same Illumina OmniExpress chip as FTDNA. What you're transferring is a computer file generated >from that chip, not the sample that it was derived from, thus if an autosomal test has not yet been done yet, you won't be able to do a new one unless you can get the original sample >from whatever company did the test originally. If the original company still has a sample, but doesn't do autosomal tests (i.e. isn't FTDNA, Ancestry.com, or 23andMe), then your only chance to get an autosomal test done is to get the original company to give up the sample and send it to FTDNA by mail. I've never heard of this occurring, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. Philip Trauring
