My Forever DNA® | Accurate • Confidential • Fast Results You Can Trust

5-7 Day Results for Discreet DNA Samples

Once your DNA samples are received and accepted by the laboratory for processing, results are typically completed and emailed within 5-7 business days - and in many cases, even sooner.

We understand that waiting for DNA answers can feel emotional, stressful, and overwhelming. That is why My Forever DNA® does things differently. We provide a fast, transparent, and fully supported testing experience, so you are never left wondering what comes next.

With My Forever DNA®, you receive:

  • Personal email confirmation from your dedicated DNA Specialist when your DNA samples are received, giving you direct access to a real person for check-ins, questions, or clarification.
  • A clear turnaround timeline so you know when to expect your results after your samples have been accepted for processing.
  • Secure, easy-to-read, full-color PDF results delivered by email, so you can download, save, or print your results for your records.
  • No confusing portals, no barcode activation, and no automated, impersonal communication. Just personalized guidance for life’s most important family answers.

Please note: Results are processed and emailed Monday through Friday only. Weekends and holidays are not included in the 5-7 business day turnaround time.

For comparison, standard cheek-swab DNA tests are typically completed within 1-3 business days after samples are received and accepted by the laboratory. However, because this test may use alternative or discreet DNA samples instead of standard cheek swabs for one or more participants, the samples must first go through additional review and processing within the laboratory’s advanced forensic DNA department. Alternative DNA samples may require extra handling, evaluation, and preparation before testing can be completed, which is why the turnaround time is longer than a standard cheek-swab DNA test.

The Human Advantage Behind Every Accurate DNA Result

We understand how personal, emotional, and important DNA testing can be. That is why My Forever DNA® does things differently by creating a more private, guided, and human DNA testing experience from start to finish.

You should not have to receive life-changing DNA test results through an impersonal portal with no clear way to speak to a real person.

Once your DNA samples arrive at the laboratory, your case is assigned to a Dedicated DNA Specialist who helps guide the process and keep you informed.

  • Direct phone and email communication with a real person
  • Personal confirmation when your DNA samples are received and placed into processing
  • Clear timelines and expectations so you know what happens next
  • Support before, during, and after results if you have questions or need clarification
  • No barcode registration, no kit activation, and no confusing online portal to navigate

My Forever DNA® provides a private, guided DNA testing experience backed by real human support when family answers matter most.
