What a DNA collection costs.
Three tiers, and the difference between them is documentation rather than laboratory work. Mobile collection at your location is included in every price.
The three tiers.
Personal
Paternity or sibling testing for your own knowledge. Mobile collection included, results in 3–5 business days. No chain of custody — cannot be used in court or for immigration.
Legal DNA
Everything in Personal, plus photo ID verified and recorded, witnessed sealing, a complete custody record and the laboratory’s report. Rush available in 2 business days.
Immigration
Everything in Legal, arranged to USCIS, NVC or embassy requirements, with the report released by the laboratory direct to the agency and overseas collection coordinated.
Which one do you need?
If anyone other than you will rely on the result — a court, a child support agency, an embassy, an employer — you need the Legal test or higher.
A personal test cannot become a legal one
The documentation has to exist from the moment of collection, and it cannot be reconstructed afterwards. If you are not sure, call before you book.
Additional participants are priced before you book
Prices are per test and start from the figures shown. Maternity, prenatal, twin, extended-family and forensic testing are quoted in advance.
The collection and the record
Whether a result is admitted is a decision for the court or the receiving agency. What we can tell you is exactly what we will document.
Not sure which test you need?
Call and describe the situation. We will tell you which one it needs and what it costs.
