Frequently Asked Questions

What is a grandparent DNA test?

A grandparent DNA test compares the DNA of a grandchild with one or both grandparents to determine whether a biological relationship exists. The lab analyzes shared genetic markers and calculates a statistical probability of the grandparent-grandchild relationship. This test is commonly used when a parent is unavailable, deceased, or unwilling to test, making direct paternity or maternity testing impossible.

How accurate is a grandparent DNA test?

My Forever DNA tests 46 genetic markers for grandparent testing, which is 175% more than the industry standard. Every test also goes through dual-process verification, meaning it is run twice for accuracy. Results are reviewed by a Chief Scientific Officer with over 20 years of experience. Because grandparents share less DNA with a grandchild than a parent does, the higher marker count is important for producing a statistically strong result.

Does the mother need to provide a DNA sample for a grandparent test?

No, but it is strongly recommended. Including the biological mother's sample helps the lab separate maternal DNA from paternal DNA in the grandchild's profile, which makes the grandparent comparison more conclusive. Testing can still be completed without the mother's sample, and results are often clear enough on their own, but adding it improves statistical confidence when available.

Can I test with just one grandparent, or do both need to participate?

You can test with just one grandparent. The test compares the grandchild's DNA directly to whichever grandparent is available. Testing with both paternal grandparents strengthens the result because the lab has more reference DNA to work with, but a single-grandparent test can still produce meaningful conclusions, especially when the mother's sample is also included.

When would I use a grandparent DNA test instead of a paternity test?

A grandparent test is the right choice when the alleged father is unavailable for testing, whether due to death, incarceration, military deployment, refusal to participate, or unknown whereabouts. By testing the alleged father's parents, the lab can determine whether the grandchild is biologically related to that family line. If the alleged father is available and willing, a direct paternity test will always give a more definitive result.

What DNA samples are needed for a grandparent test?

Standard collection uses a painless cheek swab for each participant. My Forever DNA also accepts alternative (discreet) samples such as a used toothbrush, hair with the root attached, nail clippings, or earwax. You can mix sample types in the same test. For example, one participant can provide a cheek swab while another provides a toothbrush.

What if the grandparent and grandchild live in different locations?

My Forever DNA offers a multi-location grandparent DNA test kit. You place one order, and two separate kits are shipped via FedEx to two different addresses. Each participant collects their sample independently and returns it using the included prepaid FedEx envelope. Both samples are processed under one case file.

How long does it take to get grandparent DNA test results?

Results are typically ready within 2 to 5 business days after the lab receives all samples. The total timeline from ordering to results is usually 5 to 10 business days depending on kit format, shipping speed, and sample type. Your dedicated DNA Specialist will email you when samples arrive at the lab and again when results are ready.

Is a grandparent DNA test admissible in court?

An at-home grandparent DNA test is for personal knowledge only and is not admissible in court. For legal matters such as custody, inheritance, Social Security benefits, or immigration, a legal grandparent DNA test with chain-of-custody procedures is required. My Forever DNA offers legal testing at their Omaha, Nebraska office. Contact My Forever DNA to schedule a legal grandparent DNA test.

Can a grandparent DNA test determine paternity if the father has passed away?

Yes, this is one of the most common reasons for grandparent testing. When the alleged father is deceased and no direct DNA sample is available, testing his parents (the child's potential grandparents) can establish whether a biological link exists on the paternal side. The more grandparents who participate, the stronger the statistical result. Including the biological mother's sample is also recommended to help the lab isolate the paternal contribution.
