At Fastest Labs of Fayetteville, we provide immigration DNA testing for individuals and families throughout Fayetteville and the greater Cumberland County area, with results typically available within 2-3 business days after all samples are received.

Immigration DNA testing is used to verify biological relationships such as paternity, maternity, or siblingship when documentary evidence is insufficient or unavailable for a visa or passport case.

Hear From Our Customers

“My first time coming to this facility, as soon as you walk in you’re met a small cozy space and an amazing smell. I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. The two amazing people who run the office were so nice and welcoming and got everything done in a timely manner. I will definitely recommend this place to anyone I know who will need further tests and will be coming back myself if I ever need another!”

How Immigration DNA Testing Works at Fastest Labs of Fayetteville

The process begins when the petitioner contacts us to initiate the case. We coordinate domestic collection and, when needed, overseas kit shipment to the relevant U.S. embassy or consulate for participants abroad. Chain-of-custody documentation is maintained throughout every stage: from collection and shipping through laboratory analysis. This supports acceptance by immigration authorities.

Sample Collection & ID Requirements

A certified collector performs a painless cheek swab. No doctor’s order or health insurance is required. Each adult participant must present a valid government-issued photo ID, such as a passport or national ID card. For participants under 18, a parent, guardian, or conservator must sign on their behalf. Once all samples are received at the laboratory, results are typically available within 2-3 business days and are sent to the petitioner and the requesting immigration authority or U.S. embassy.

Relationship Types We Test

Immigration DNA testing covers a range of qualifying biological relationships, and the scenario that applies to your case determines which test is ordered. Common situations include a U.S. citizen or permanent resident sponsoring a child, parent, or sibling, as well as family reunification cases where documentary evidence is absent or has been questioned.

Paternity and maternity testing: Verifies the biological relationship between a parent and child when documentary records are unavailable or disputed.
Full and half siblingship testing: Used when the immigration case involves a brother or sister relationship rather than a parent-child relationship.
Family-based immigration DNA testing: Covers the broader range of qualifying biological relationships recognized in family-based immigration applications.

What to Bring to Your Appointment

When you call or book online, our team can walk you through the documentation required for your specific case. As a general rule, participants should have the written request or documentation from USCIS or the U.S. embassy that prompted testing, including the case or file number, along with a valid government-issued photo ID.

Sample collection is non-invasive. A cheek swab is all that’s needed, and the visit is brief for most participants.

When USCIS or a U.S. Embassy May Request DNA Testing

DNA testing in immigration cases is typically prompted by one of two federal channels. USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence or a Notice of Intent to Deny when documentary evidence of a biological relationship is insufficient or unavailable, suggesting DNA testing as a way to support the petition. U.S. embassies and consulates may recommend it in cases involving applications for a U.S. immigrant visa, a Consular Report of Birth Abroad, or a U.S. passport.

DNA testing is entirely voluntary. Choosing to provide DNA evidence doesn’t guarantee approval of an immigration application. The petitioner in the U.S. is typically responsible for initiating the process with an accredited laboratory and covering the cost of testing.

AABB Accreditation & Federal Requirements

The U.S. federal government requires that any DNA test used in immigration proceedings be conducted by an AABB-accredited facilities like those that we partner with. These are the only facilities recognized for immigration DNA testing purposes, including visa, passport, and citizenship cases. These facilities follow validated procedures to maintain chain-of-custody documentation and full traceability from case initiation through result reporting.

All immigration DNA testing cases must be initiated directly between the petitioner and an AABB-accredited facility. USCIS doesn’t accept results from third-party intermediaries, so confirming accreditation status before you schedule is an important first step.

Cost & Turnaround for Immigration DNA Testing

The cost of immigration DNA testing generally covers domestic sample collection, laboratory analysis, chain-of-custody documentation, and delivery of results to the requesting immigration authority. When a beneficiary is located abroad, international shipping and overseas collection fees may also apply. Health insurance doesn’t cover these costs, and the petitioner is responsible for payment.

We offer comprehensive immigration DNA testing at affordable prices, with results typically available within 2-3 business days after all samples are received. Turnaround can be affected by how quickly all participants’ samples arrive at the laboratory, particularly when overseas embassy collection is involved. We can give you a clear picture of expected timing when you initiate your case.

Privacy & Confidentiality

Immigration DNA test results are sent only to the petitioner and the requesting immigration authority, such as USCIS or the relevant U.S. embassy or consulate, and are not broadly distributed. The petitioner receives results by documented delivery once testing is complete. Our certified collectors handle each case with the same standard of precision and confidentiality we apply across all of our testing services.
