How Immigration DNA Testing Works at Fastest Labs of Gateway Cities

The process is straightforward once you know the steps. Here’s what to expect from the moment you receive your request through the delivery of results.

Step 1: Receive your request from USCIS or a consular officer.
Immigration DNA Testing is typically initiated through a Request for Evidence (RFE) letter or a recommendation from a U.S. consular officer. Have that documentation ready before you schedule.

Step 2: Contact or visit our Long Beach location.
Call us or walk in to Fastest Labs of Gateway Cities to set up your collection appointment. Scheduling ahead helps minimize your wait, but walk-ins are welcome.

Step 3: Bring valid ID.
All participants need a valid government-issued photo ID. For minors, bring an applicable birth certificate or guardian documentation.

Step 4: Buccal swab collection.
Our certified collector takes a quick, painless buccal (cheek) swab from each participant. The entire collection visit is typically over in minutes.

Step 5: Chain of custody documentation and lab submission.
Samples are documented under strict chain of custody procedures and sent directly to our accredited laboratory partner. Petitioners and beneficiaries don’t handle kits or samples at any point.

Step 6: Results delivered to USCIS or the embassy.
The lab sends results directly to the requesting USCIS office or U.S. embassy or consulate, and you receive a copy as well. Results are available in as little as 2-3 days after all samples arrive at the lab, dependent on test type.

Understanding Immigration DNA Testing: What You Need to Know

If you’ve just received a Request for Evidence letter, this section covers the key facts about how immigration DNA testing works and what the requirements mean for your case.

When Is Immigration DNA Testing Required?

USCIS and U.S. consular officers request DNA testing in family-based immigration cases when standard documents, such as birth certificates or adoption records, are unavailable or insufficient to prove a biological relationship. The test is considered voluntary by USCIS. Submitting results doesn’t guarantee approval of a visa or any other immigration benefit, but a properly collected result can help address one significant evidentiary hurdle.

What Relationships Can Be Tested?

Immigration DNA testing covers paternity/maternity testing and full or half siblingship testing, which are the relationship types most commonly involved in family-based immigration petitions. More distant connections, such as grandparent-grandchild or avuncular (aunt or uncle) relationships, can’t always be proven reliably through DNA testing for immigration purposes. A certified collector can help clarify which test applies to your situation.

How Results Are Submitted

For parent-child relationships, immigration authorities require results showing 99.5 percent or greater certainty of the biological relationship. The accredited lab must send results directly to USCIS or the applicable U.S. embassy or consulate, as the U.S. Department of State does not accept results submitted independently by petitioners. You will receive a copy of your results as well. If the beneficiary is located abroad, the accredited lab coordinates with the U.S. embassy or consulate for overseas sample collection through pre-arranged channels.
