Accurate. Confidential. Convenient.
We offer a wide range of DNA tests for legal and personal use.
Life often presents you with unexpected questions. A child may need to establish legal parentage for child support. An expectant mother may want to confirm paternity before the baby’s birth. Some might need legal documentation of biological relationships to support a family-based immigration application.
At Face DNA Test, we understand that every situation is different, and we offer tailored, affordable DNA tests in Idaho to meet diverse needs. Our experienced team works closely with families and individuals looking for answers, helping them choose the right DNA test.
Every DNA test is handled professionally, and samples are collected securely at our DNA testing centers in Idaho. We work with AABB-accredited & CLIA-certified DNA testing labs to process our samples, ensuring reliability, quality assurance, and confidentiality.
Many people in Idaho assume that a positive DNA test result automatically creates legal parentage. It’s not always the case in Idaho. While DNA testing can accurately confirm paternity, its legal significance is governed by specific procedures outlined in Idaho Code Title 11.
Under Idaho Code 7-1106, parents can complete a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity when both agree on the biological father. When this acknowledgment is filed with the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare’s Vital Statistics Unit, it becomes a legally binding acknowledgment of paternity.
However, when parents disagree about paternity, courts consider paternity testing in Idaho to determine legal parentage. Idaho law uses court-ordered DNA tests in Idaho as evidence in paternity cases involving child support, custody, inheritance, birth certificates, parental responsibilities, and other social benefits.
Therefore, it is important to understand that not all DNA tests have legal value. At-home DNA test kits in Idaho can provide accurate paternity answers but are not admissible in courts. Only a legal DNA test with professional sample collection, a documented chain of custody, and accredited lab analysis is admissible in court.
Face DNA Test meets all these legal criteria and fulfills court requirements, ensuring results are used when official documentation is required. Our team will guide you through each option and help you select the DNA test that fits your situation.
