Changes to DNA Testing During COVID-19

Over the coming weeks, in order to meet demand while supporting the needs and the health of our staff, we will no longer be scheduling sample collections for all DNA tests (including: Paternity, Legal, and NIPP DNA tests) at our home office, Laboratory, and with our partners across the country.

What this means to our customers:

We do NOT expect an increase in the turn around time for the results of our DNA tests at this time. We will update if and when this may change. Until then, Validity Genetics continues to receive, process, and produce the fastest most accurate DNA test results in the industry.
