DNA testing can offer peace of mind
in determining if a biological relationship exists between
donors.
Questions about paternity and simple
relationships can be answered by taking a Peace of Mind
DNA test.
Peace of Mind testing
process - how do I proceed?
The process is simple to start,
and the application form can be downloaded here:
Order your test: Peace of Mind application form
Complete the application form and
make an appointment at one of our nominated collection
centres. You can choose the collection centre that is
most local to you.
Present with all donors to the
appointment making sure to bring along the complete application
with payment. Adults are required to have photo ID for our
collector to sight.
All donors on the application are to
present to the appointment where mouth swabs are collected from
each of them. Results are typically issued in 10 working days
from receipt of the samples to the applicant.
Please note: The sample collection
process for Peace of Mind testing does not
comply with the Family Law Act and therefore reports are
not admissible for legal purposes. Testing that has
been performed to the standards set by NATA or Family Law Act
1975 may avoid costly repeat testing.
Tests available with Peace of
Mind DNA testing
Testing can determine paternity,
maternity, common paternal lineage (along the male line), sibship
between 2 sisters (mother's sample is required) and twin
testing.
