Immigration DNA Testing

The DNA of the sponsoring party is collected in any of our clinics, and the DNA of the relatives are collected at the US Consulate offices in their home country. Their DNA is then shipped to the laboratory where the analysis is completed. Once the report is ready, it is submitted directly to the Immigration and Naturalization Service to expedite the process. Health Street works with an AABB certified laboratory that performs the Immigration DNA test in conjunction with the US consulate offices in over 170 countries around the world.

• The lab will arrange to collect your specimen (cheek swab) in the US at a convenient location.
• You, the petitioner, will come in for your appointment to get cheek swabbed.
• The lab will ship a specimen collection kit to the US Consulate in the applicant’s home country.
• The US Consulate will arrange for the collection of the specimen of your relative(s).
• To get a DNA immigration test, you need to have the paperwork (from INS) that requests you to get the test. It is not available unless it was specifically requested by the US Government.
• Immigration DNA test collections need to be pre-scheduled through the AABB certified laboratory that we work with. We’ll help you arrange that contact.
• Once the test results are completed, the results are shipped directly to U.S. Immigration on your behalf, as required.This test can be scheduled by phone only – call 888-378-2499.(NOTE TO PATH:  we will not have any links to purchase this test online any longer, due to recent changes in the US Immigration policy which disallow this).

• Lab fees will be paid directly to the AABB certified lab.
• Shipping costs vary by country.
• The consulate offices in some countries may assess a small fee for your relatives to be tested
