Why Austin Families Choose Fastest Labs of Central Austin

Immigration DNA testing must meet strict standards to be accepted by USCIS, U.S. embassies, and courts. We use only fully AABB-accredited laboratories for all immigration testing, the recognized standard immigration authorities require, and our chain of custody protocols support results that are legally admissible and upheld throughout all of the U.S.

Most results are available within 2-3 days, dependent on test type. That turnaround matters when immigration timelines are tight. Results are documented for use in immigration clearance, granting citizenship, and passport verification. For family members located outside the United States, we offer pre-arranged sample collection locations so both the petitioner in Austin and the beneficiary abroad can complete collection without delays. Sample collection is non-invasive, conducted via a simple buccal swab in clean, comfortable facilities. We also work to meet or beat any competitor’s price.

Certifications & Laboratory Partners

Fastest Labs of Central Austin holds WBE, DBE, and MBE certifications. Our laboratory partner network includes DNA Diagnostics Center and DNA Solutions, among others, giving us access to accredited analysis resources that support the full range of immigration testing needs. FastestLabs has more than 10 years of experience in the testing industry. It’s a track record families and immigration attorneys can rely on.

Relationship Types We Verify

Immigration DNA testing proves biological relationships between a petitioner in the U.S. and a beneficiary abroad when documentary evidence is unavailable or insufficient. We offer paternity/maternity testing, full or half siblingship testing, and immigration DNA testing for family-based immigration. Common relationships verified for USCIS purposes include parent-child, sibling, and grandparent-grandchild relationships.

Test selection depends on the specific relationship being verified and the requirements stated in the immigration authority’s request. We can also assist in more complex cases, including situations in which individuals were born abroad without citizenship. If you’re unsure which test applies to your situation, our team can walk you through the options.

The Immigration DNA Testing Process

The process starts when you schedule an appointment online or by phone, or simply walk in. Every adult participant must present a valid government-issued photo ID at collection. For participants under 18, a parent, guardian, or conservator must be present to authorize collection.

For a DNA test to be accepted for immigration purposes, sample collection must be conducted by a neutral, non-interested third party. Our staff handles collection at our Austin facility using a quick, non-invasive buccal swab. Samples are then sent to AABB-accredited laboratories for analysis, with most results available within 2-3 days, dependent on test type. Results are transmitted directly from the laboratory to the requesting immigration authority, with a copy sent to you.

International Sample Coordination

In family-based immigration cases, the petitioner in the U.S. and the beneficiary abroad must each have their sample collected separately. The beneficiary typically provides their sample at a U.S. Embassy or consulate, where a designated physician or medical technician performs collection under Embassy supervision. The petitioner has their sample collected domestically at a facility like Fastest Labs of Central Austin in Austin.

Coordinating both collection sites correctly is essential to avoid delays in the immigration application timeline. We offer pre-arranged sample collection locations for individuals outside the U.S. and can assist with complex immigration DNA testing scenarios, including cases involving individuals born abroad without citizenship. If you have questions about the international coordination process, contact us before your appointment so we can prepare accordingly.

What to Bring to Your Appointment

Coming prepared keeps your visit on track and prevents case delays. Every participant should have the following:

Valid government-issued photo ID for all adult participants
USCIS, embassy, or attorney documentation specifying the test type required and the case reference number
Parent, guardian, or conservator authorization for any participant under 18

Before your appointment, verify that the names and case numbers on your immigration paperwork match your identification documents exactly. Discrepancies can cause processing delays. The buccal swab collection itself is painless and typically completed in minutes, so the preparation you do beforehand is the most important part of your visit.
