Grandparent At-Home DNA Test - Instant Digital Download

2-3 Day Results for Cheek Swabs | 5-7 Day Results for Discreet DNA Samples

Standard cheek-swab DNA tests are typically completed and emailed within 2-3 business days after samples are received and accepted by the laboratory.

Discreet or alternative DNA samples require additional review, evaluation, and preparation through the laboratory’s advanced forensic DNA department. Because these sample types require extra processing before DNA testing can be completed, results are typically completed and emailed within 5-7 business days after the samples are received and accepted by the laboratory - 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 listed turnaround times.

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
