How Does My Child Take a DNA Test?
If you are contesting your child’s paternity in court, then your child will need to take a DNA test. To be court-admissible, the DNA test must be collected by a neutral third-party company. Additionally, the laboratory must be an AABB-accredited facility. These requirements help you accurately prove your child’s paternity without bribery or falsification.
How does your child take a DNA test? While it might seem complicated, it’s actually very simple. Your child will take the DNA test the same way the parents do! Testing is painless and quick. Swab the inside of your child’s cheek, drop it into the test tube, and submit the test tube for analysis. That’s it!
In some cases, you may want to prove your child’s paternity before he or she is born. You can prove this in three ways:
- Cervical Villis Sample (CVS): which can be collected at 10 to 12 weeks of pregnancy.
- Amniotic Fluid: The preferred method, which can be collected at 12 to 21 weeks of pregnancy.
- Non-Invasive Blood Sample: This can be collected any time after 12 weeks of pregnancy. DNA Paternity Testing Centers offers this blood sample kit on our “Specialty Testing” page.
DNA Paternity Testing Centers offers any paternity testing kits you may need. We offer standard, expedited, and home test kits that give you accurate results in three to five days. All three kits can be used for personal or legal use. We also offer a non-invasive blood sample kit, which gives you results in seven to ten business days.
