Linda;

Here is my update, use it as a benchmark, I have migrated 2 groups.? The first took 5 days (Weekend included) from the request to completion.? The second I started on Saturday, and completed this morning (EST).? The email I got is included below to show that it was completed.?
Both, I had upgraded to "paid" before I started any of the steps.? I have a third that I started yesterday but I mixed up the order of things to see how it does or does not work.
One of mine had several failures on the Photo section - common issues on the Yahoo side - so I created a second migration of just the photos.? The request was completed within 4 hours.? There were several duplicates created of the photos that came over in the first wave.? But I got several of the missing ones back.?
Lesson:? Check your data before and after you do the migration.

Sample completed migration notification:
