What are the Key Features of the Legal Paternity Test?

About our test

Forensics Canada provides DNA immigration testing that meets the requirements of Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). All results are accredited by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC).

To ensure the test is legally valid, it must be conducted by an accredited DNA laboratory. At Forensics Canada, we guarantee that your test will be handled by a highly experienced lab operating under full accreditation. The cost of a Legal Paternity Test is $399.

Once your samples are processed, results will be delivered via email within 3 to 5 business days.

Please note: to maintain the legal validity of your results, the DNA sample collection must follow a strict procedure known as the Chain of Custody.

Book appointment with a DNA sampler

A proper Chain of Custody requires that DNA samples be collected and verified by a neutral third party, known as a sampler. This individual is typically a doctor, nurse, or other authorized professional. The sampler is responsible for confirming the true identity of each person submitting a sample to ensure the results are legally admissible.

Please note: The sampler’s fee is not included in the cost of our legal DNA test and must be paid separately.

Prepare all the necessary paper work

On the day of your scheduled DNA sample collection, please ensure you bring the following:

  • A legally recognized form of identification, such as a passport or government-issued ID card.

  • For children, a birth certificate is required as proof of identity.

  • Photocopies of the identification documents being presented.

  • A clear, passport-sized photo of each test participant. Please ensure that the photo shows the full face without any head coverings (unless worn for religious or medical reasons).

If you’re seeking legal DNA testing, or have questions about paternity or relationship tests, our team is here to help and happy to discuss your case in detail.

Identification and DNA sample collection

DNA Sample Collection Procedure

All DNA samples are collected directly by the sampler using the sterile mouth swabs provided in our collection kit. At no point will the individual being tested be allowed to handle or come into contact with the swabs, ensuring the integrity and legal validity of the samples.

Once collected, the sampler will seal the samples and arrange for them to be sent to the laboratory for testing.

The sampler will also endorse each passport-sized photo you provide with the following statement:

“I, [Sampler’s Full Name], certify that this is a true likeness of [Participant’s Full Name].”

Date

After the laboratory processes the samples, your results will be emailed to your specified email address within 3 to 5 business days.
