QUESTION: What is a home paternity test kit?
The IDENTIGENE home paternity test kit is for individuals in need of a paternity test for peace of mind; to answer their questions of paternity without going through the legal process.
Paternity test home DNA collection
The home paternity test kit comes with all of the supplies needed to collect DNA samples for paternity testing, including the alleged father, the child, and the biological mother if she is available. Also included in the kit are supplies needed to send the samples to the laboratory for testing. The home paternity test kit allows you to collect the DNA samples yourself in your own home. You collect the samples, fill out the paperwork, and send the samples to the laboratory for paternity testing. Included in the kit is an order form which is used to advise the laboratory how you would like to receive your results. You may receive results online using a secure login and password that you create on that order form. With the password you can even receive results over the phone from one of our expert client support representatives. You may use the self addressed stamped envelope supplied in the kit to send the samples to the laboratory for testing, along with the processing fee. Once all samples arrive at the laboratory, the paternity testing process is 2-3 business days. You will then have the answers needed for your peace of mind.
The Legal Paternity Test DNA Collection
The legal paternity test collection is different from the at home collection. The legal paternity test collection needs to be done by a non-interested third party, which the laboratory completing the paternity testing will set up for you. The client support team will schedule your collection at a facility in your area, you then go to the collection facility, and they collect the DNA from all participants, verify ID, and in most cases take photos. The collector will then send the collected samples directly to the testing facility to ensure the integrity of the samples. This is to establish a chain-of-custody in order to make the results court admissible. The home paternity test collection kit is not for those who are interested in court admissible paternity test results, which you may need for things such as child support, child custody, or social security benefits.
