U.S. Immigration and VISA Relationship DNA Testing
WHY DO I HAVE TO TAKE A DNA TEST FOR U.S. IMMIGRATION?
As part of U.S. immigration or visiting procedures, you may be requested to perform an immigration relationship DNA test to prove that you are related to your relatives living in the United States or related to an applicant. In most cases, this is a legal relationship test in the form of legal paternity, aunt/uncle, or grandparents’ DNA test.
​
This is generally an administrative formality but is a crucial step in the VISA application process.
​
These tests differ from other DNA tests and have stricter sample collection procedures. This is to ensure that people are not cheating on the tests and no fraud is being committed during the process of gaining a U.S. VISA.
​
It’s important for you to request and perform all steps of the test correctly. Be sure you follow all the rules and procedures if you want your test results to be valid and legal in the eyes of U.S. Immigration.
IMMIGRATION DNA TESTS CAN ONLY BE LEGALLY COMPLETED AT THE REQUEST OF U.S. IMMIGRATION (USCIS) OR IF A CONSULAR OFFICER HAS REQUESTED THE DNA TEST.
The requesting letter or proof of request must be submitted to our laboratory and include:
​
-
Full legal name of each participant.
-
Date of birth for each participant.
-
Contact phone number for each participant.
-
Mailing address for each participant.
-
Notation of where the party is located (e.g. U.S., International, or both).
​
At no time will the person(s) to be tested receive a test kit. A stringent Chain of Custody rules are in effect, and an impartial third party must completely administer tests.
​
​
​Our office will assist with scheduling appointments, shipment of sample kits to and from U.S. Embassies or Consulates worldwide and release the official testing results to government authorities. A copy of the test will also be sent to our client.
​
​
​
Please note that the test must be requested by U.S. Immigration. Do not request or purchase a DNA test for the purpose of immigration testing before receiving the requesting letter from the USCIS to do so. It will not be accepted by U.S. Immigration.
