Frequently Asked Questions About Paternity Testing
-
Paternity testing is a painless method for determining if a man is the biological father of a child through the collection of small cheek-swab samples from both parties.
-
Regardless of your personal reasons for ordering a home paternity test, it’s essential to use a trusted accredited lab like GameDay DNA to perform the testing. You can buy a home kit online and mail it to the lab for processing. Legal and non-invasive prenatal paternity tests must be purchased directly from an accredited DNA testing lab.
-
At-Home DNA Test: You collect DNA in the comfort of your own home with a simple cheek swab, and then mail it directly to the lab for processing. Results are for personal knowledge only
Legal Paternity Test: This test uses a chain-of-custody process to independently verify tested parties at the time of DNA collection. It’s required for cases involving child support and custody, immigration, inheritance disputes, and other legal matters
Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity Test: Using free-floating fetal DNA found in the mother’s blood, this test allows individuals to safely determine paternity any time after the seventh week of pregnancy
-
DNA testing is the gold standard for determining the paternity of a child. The advantages of paternity testing include:
Access to legal rights and privileges such as health insurance or child support (legal paternity tests only)
Insights about medical history (e.g., inherited conditions)
The chance to develop emotional bonds and a sense of identity
Peace of mind
