FAQs About DNA Testing for Canadian Immigration

Below are some frequently asked questions about Canadian immigration DNA testing.

What Is the Process for SCC-Accredited DNA Testing?

The process for an SCC-Accredited DNA test through DDC is as follows:

  • DDC schedules the sponsor’s DNA-collection appointment in Canada.
  • Sponsor’s DNA sample is collected.
  • DDC ships a DNA collection kit to the Canadian Embassy or IRCC office in the applicant’s home country.
  • Canadian Embassy or IRCC office collects the applicant’s DNA sample and ships the samples back to DDC.

  • IRCC Requests
  • Parent-Child Sponsorship Applications
  • Embassies Overseas
  • Paternity, Maternity, Sibling, Kinship, and Other Relative Testing

For a Canadian Immigration DNA Test, Does DDC Send All Required Paperwork to the Foreign Embassy?

DDC sends all required paperwork to complete a Canadian immigration DNA test to the foreign embassy, consulate, or other immigration office. This paperwork includes the request form and instructions for testing at the beginning of the process. Once testing is complete, DDC sends the required chain-of-custody paperwork and the results report to the embassy. The sponsor in the case receives a hard copy of the report once the test is paid in full.

How Long Will It Take for the Overseas Family to Get a DNA Collection Appointment?

The amount of time necessary to complete the overseas DNA collection process from start to finish can range from days to months depending on the applicant’s country of origin, as some countries may lack necessary infrastructure required for expedited results. It is unfortunately something we cannot control.

Do I Have to Wait Until the Applicant Has Their Sample Collected Before I Can Have My DNA Collected Here in Canada?

We prefer to collect the sponsor’s sample as soon as possible, since some countries require the sponsor to be collected before a DNA collection kit can be sent to the other country. So the sooner the DNA test in Canada is collected, the better.

What Are the DNA-Collection Requirements for Canadian Sponsors?

The sponsor in Canada must have 2 forms of ID at the time of the appointment. One must be a government-issued photo ID and the other can be a medical card. They must also have a passport photo. If any of these items are missing, a recollection appointment will need to be scheduled.
