Home Family Reconstruction DNA Test $325

Our missing parent DNA testing package is complete with testing collection kit, DNA analysis and test results. Some companies advertise that you can make your own collection kit by using your own Q-tips®. However, strongly recommend against this practice. There is a risk of multiple DNA samples being found on Q-tips® that are not sterile, or that may have been handled by more than one person. Q-tips® you may have in your home could already have DNA from other sources on them. For this reason, we send a family reconstruction DNA collection kit containing sterile buccal swabs to you at no charge. We ship the collection kit to you via FREE so you have your sterile medical swabs ready for use quickly.

With PaternityUSA.com, our service is simply unparalleled and our prices are very affordable. You can rest assured your DNA samples are secure and your results will be accurate. With today’s technology and inexpensive pricing on DNA relationship testing, there is no longer a need to go without knowing the truth about a biological relationship.

Participants In Different Cities Or States

It isn’t uncommon for test participants to live too far apart to get together for a DNA collection. We offer an option to have multiple collection kits shipped out for these situations. When you place your order, simply choose the option for an additional address. We send each collection kit for all addresses on your order within the contiguous USA with the same shipping method as the first. The collection kits are linked through reference numbers and bar codes before shipping. Then, when the samples are received, they are matched to your case through the bar code and reference numbers.

Missing Parent DNA Testing Process And Sample Collection

The collection process for missing parent DNA testing is very simple. DNA is easily collected through a cheek swab, which is also called a buccal swab. The swab, similar to a large Q-tip, is painlessly rubbed against the inside of the cheek to collect skin cells from the inside of the mouth. We conduct all of our tests twice. For that reason, there will be multiple buccal swabs per person in your collection kit. Collect DNA through swabbing each side of the mouth.  It is best to rinse the mouth with water and refrain from smoking or drinking coffee or tea for 2-3 hours before the DNA collection. Once the swabs have been taken, place the samples in the return prepaid mailer. Finally, drop the samples off at the courier’s location or box to send your samples for testing.

When all samples are received, you will be notified via email that testing has begun. We will email  your missing parent DNA testing results when the analysis is complete, within 3-5 business days. If hard copy results are ordered, our team mails the report is to the shipping address unless otherwise noted.

We ship our collection kits Monday through Friday to addresses in the contiguous USA. Orders received and processed by 12:00 PM EST are shipped the same business day.  Orders received after 12:00 PM EST are shipped the following business day.

When You Need A Legal Or Immigration Family Genetic Reconstruction Test

If you need the result for your DNA testing to be admissible in court for inheritance purposes, to change a name, etc., then you will need a legally-binding family reconstruction test. If you simply want the test results for personal knowledge, then the non-legal family reconstruction DNA test is right for you.

Other Types Of DNA Samples

The most common method of DNA collection is through a cheek swab. However, we understand there are times when test participant is unable to submit a swab, such as may be the case where a family member may be deceased, incarcerated or otherwise unavailable. For these reasons, we offer forensic processing services for other types of DNA samples. Ear wax, hair (must have the root ball attached), mucous on a tissue, finger or toe nail clippings, and toothbrushes are common forensic samples. Additionally, in certain cases tissue or blood samples may be available from a medical examiner or coroner’s office. Forensic sampling prices apply for samples other than cheek swabs.
