DNA testing for immigration sees delays as Embassy guidelines change

Families going through the immigration process understand that it takes time. A lot of time. Once clients call us to complete DNA tests, they are usually very close to being reunited with family members. Recently, many U.S. Embassies overseas have been changing guidelines and creating a delay in the DNA test.

In order to make sure your DNA test is being handled quickly and properly, please visit www.usembassy.gov. Click on the embassy that you are going through. Then type “DNA” into the search box.

Once you do that you should see specific instructions for completing DNA testing in your country. Your Boston Paternity case manager will work with you to make sure everything moves along as smoothly as possible.

If your DNA test is being requested by USCIS there may be different rules, such as where the beneficiary’s sample will be collected. Again, your case manager will work with you to follow the USCIS guidelines so Immigration will accept your results.

You can trust Boston Paternity to be up to date on the newest Embassy and USCIS rules and regulations regarding immigration DNA testing.
