Establishing Paternity in New York
Resources to Establish Paternity
In New York, there are several resources available to help individuals establish paternity. Hospitals and birthing centers provide the opportunity to complete a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity (AOP) form at the time of a child's birth. This form allows both parents to voluntarily acknowledge paternity, simplifying the process. The New York State Department of Health and local child support offices can assist in paternity establishment, including genetic testing if necessary. Additionally, legal assistance can be sought from family law attorneys who specialize in paternity and child custody cases. Establishing paternity is essential for determining parental rights, child support, and access to benefits. For those in New York needing assistance with paternity matters, contacting the New York State Department of Health, local child support offices, or consulting with a family law attorney is recommended.
Frequently Asked Questions About DNA Relationship Tests
-
For legal DNA tests, we have a nationwide network of approved collection sites that follow strict chain-of-custody procedures. For non-legal DNA tests, we offer convenient at-home kits that can be used in 49 U.S. states and select international locations.
-
While including the mother's DNA can provide additional genetic information, it is not always necessary for our advanced DNA analysis. Our cutting-edge Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology can often determine relationships accurately without maternal DNA, though some specific legal situations may require the mother's participation.
-
We primarily utilize non-invasive cheek (buccal) swabs for DNA collection. This simple, painless method provides sufficient genetic material for our 99.99% accurate tests.
In certain cases, such as prenatal testing, we may also use blood samples.
-
Our at-home kits come with detailed instructions. Typically, you'll need to avoid eating, drinking, or smoking for 1 hour before collecting the sample, then rub the swab inside your cheek for 30-60 seconds and allow it to air dry before returning it to us.
