DNA test helpful in immigration case

DNA Diagnostics Center (DDC) is the world’s leading provider of DNA testing for immigration purposes. Our vast experience with immigration clients and agencies from more than 168 countries worldwide sets us apart as the most trustworthy provider of DNA testing services for immigration.

Most DNA tests for immigration reasons are parentage testing (paternity or maternity) but in some cases a grand parentage or avuncular test is employed to prove an alleged relationship. Verifying paternity through DNA testing can be the key to establishing legal residency and citizenship.

DNA Testing Laboratory has helped thousands of people do just that. We're a fully accredited to provide DNA testing to the Immigration and Naturalization Service/Department of Human Services. As a recognized supplier for immigration DNA testing, also provide government agencies, local embassies and immigration clients with DNA test result interpretation. We strictly adhere to all legal DNA testing guidelines for paternity testing as set forth by the American Association of Blood Banks and the International Standards Organization (ISO). We'll help you negotiate the intricacies of dealing with government agencies, and provide you with the DNA testing proof you need to make your case.

The Immigration and Nationality Act requires that a blood and legal relationship be established. In addition to documentation, a genetic test may be required by a DNA testing laboratory. The laboratory must be accredited by the American Association of Blood Banks for Parentage Testing. Affiliated Genetics is one of fewer than 50 laboratories worldwide to hold such accreditation.

We have over a decade of experience with Immigration DNA Testing from setting up sample collection, fulfilling testing requirements and reporting results in a timely manner. We have worked in conjunction with embassy and consulate offices worldwide. Immigration cases may be simply to determine paternity or maternity. Additionally, family relationships can also be determined using DNA with the participation of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and siblings. In the case of a husband and wife, the petitioner may be required to prove there is no biological relationship.

The immigration law treats a case where a child is related only to one of the parents differently. Treatment will depend on whether the child is related to the mother or to the father. When the child is revealed to be the biological child of the father but not the mother, the Home Office usually seeks an explanation from the family on the following issues:

whether the child has been brought up and lives with the natural mother or the natural father
whether the child's mother is also seeking entry or whether she qualifies for admission
whether the father had exercised sole responsibility for the child's upbringing
whether the father had a previous undisclosed marriage or is in a polygamous marriage

When the child is related only to the mother, the situation is different. This is a very delicate case and is usually handled with great sensitivity as the child may be illegitimate and the father may not be aware. The impact of a disclosure of adultery could be disastrous for the woman. If the child has been brought up as child of the family he or she is usually admitted.

If DNA testing results indicate that the child is unrelated to the claimant, there may still be grounds for the Home Office to concede the application. If there is evidence that the child has been brought up as a member of the family he or she may be qualified for admission as de facto adopted child. In cases where the child is not a biological child of the parents but is related to them, the child may qualify as a dependant of a relative other than a parent.
