PS You do realize that nothing happens to your yahoo group, right? It will stay exactly the same after the transfer, unless you do something such as make it an 'announcement only' group to prevent people from posting further to it. That's what I did and I think it eliminated a lot of confusion I've seen in some other groups that transferred over, where people were posting to both groups. The Groups.io group is just a copy of your yahoo group. Nothing is actually transferred. The old group still exists.

You don't need to tell yahoo anything! The steps are (1) invited the transfer address, (2) once it's accepted the invite, make it a moderator and (3) send the transfer address an email saying you're ready for the transfer. The whole thing took less than 48 hours for my group, from invite to fully transferred group. I don't k ow why you're having these problems. Perhaps the process has changed since I moved my group inJanuary.

Thanks to everyone about the transfer process. I¡¯ve done everything I can do from this end.
The next step is an email asking for information for Yahoo about giving Groups.io permission to transfer. I was just wondering who long it might take to receive that.
I had to tell my list members about a potential move so they are overrunning me with questions.
