DNA test for UK Immigration

 

There are cases where the petitioner and the beneficiary must prove their genetic relationship for UK immigration. For people who want to reunite with their distant relatives living in the UK, a DNA Test for UK Immigration is the answer.

In terms of immigration, the applicant is called the ‘beneficiary’ of the immigration. On the other hand, the person sponsoring the immigration, that is, a permanent resident of a given country is called the ‘petitioner.

 The need for an immigration DNA test is to ensure that the immigration is fair and the applicant is a biological relative to the petitioner. Generally, in the case of immigration, the applicant is dependent on the person living in that country.

 

What is the procedure of a DNA Test for UK Immigration?

The first step in getting a DNA test for UK Immigration is to choose a laboratory accredited to the Ministry of Justice (MOJ), which is mandatory for a testing lab to do a UK immigration DNA test.

The test is carried out under the proper Chain of Custody. We use superior grade Buccal Swabs for a DNA sample collection from the cheeks. The sample is then air-dried for a few minutes and packed into a tamper-proof package to ship to our testing facility/lab.

The test results are then shared with the involved parties over a phone call, and the reports are shared by email.

An Indian applicant for UK immigration can visit our center and give their DNA sample for the test. The person already living in the UK (the petitioner) can visit their nearest DDC Laboratories collection center to give his/her sample.

A person living in countries other than India or UK has to buy our DNA collection kit online for the DNA Test for UK Immigration.
