Home Paternity Kits

Genetrack now offers discreet home paternity test kits for clients to take the test discreetly in the privacy of their own home. There are two versions of the home kit: "personal knowledge kit" and "court admissible kit".

Is the Home DNA Test Accurate?
Yes. The Home DNA Test is just as accurate as our standard legal tests. All paternity inclusions are greater than 99.9% and all paternity exclusions are 100%.

Can the results from the Home DNA Test be used in court?
There is no difference in the accuracy between the private knowledge test and the legal test. The only difference is the witnessing of the collection. For results to be admissible in court, proper steps must be taken during sample collection to ensure witnessing and verification, a process called "chain of custody". The "court admissible" version of the home kit contains all documents required for third party witnessing and the results can be used in court. If you plan on using the results in court, you should either choose the court admissible home kit, or the legal test (attend appointment for sample collection).

How long does the paternity test take?
Results are available in 3 to 5 working days.

Is the kit easy to use?
Yes. The collection kit comes complete with all of the necessary materials and instructions for safe and painless buccal cell collection. The collection should take less than 5 minutes per person and is completely safe and painless.
