What Should I Expect During My DNA Appointment?
If you need to collect a DNA sample for court-admissible results, look no further than DNA Paternity Testing Centers! We have over 2,000 locations, so you can book an appointment at a convenient time and location. Here’s what you can expect at your appointment.
You should arrive a few minutes before your appointment so you can get checked in at the front desk. You must present a photo ID of yourself and/or of your child at the front desk. This confirms your identity so your results are accurate. Acceptable forms of ID include a driver’s license, state-issued ID, military ID, and passport.
Children must have a photo ID, a birth certificate, or a Social Security card. If testing a newborn and a birth certificate or a Social Security card may not be available, the mother or legal guardian should visit the testing facility with the child, provide their photo ID, and the hospital discharge papers. If there is absolutely no ID available for the child in a case, we can still provide DNA testing; however, the legal use of your test results could be affected.
At your appointment time, you will be taken to a private room where a medical professional will perform a buccal swab test. This is a cotton swab attached to a long plastic stick. The professional will gently swab the inside of the right and left cheek. It is a quick and painless test. That’s it!
DNA Paternity Testing Center uses AABB-accredited testing facilities so your results are admissible in court. You will receive a phone call in three to five business days to verbally confirm the results. The documents will arrive via priority mail.
With over 2,000 centers nationwide, DNA Paternity Testing Centers is one of the largest, most affordable networks of accredited DNA testing labs in the United States. Our price is unbeatable without sacrificing quality. We offer DNA testing for paternity, maternity, and all other relationships, such as grandparents, siblings, aunts, and uncles.
