For years, Jamaican families have been migrating to the United States of America. In the US, there are 4 generations of Jamaican communities and around 1.2 Million Jamaicans living as immigrants. Jamaicans are living comfortable lives with their families in the US and even more are moving to the US each year. You may find large communities of Jamaican American families in New York City, Tampa, Orlando, Atlanta, Washington DC, Baltimore, South Florida, Philadelphia, New Jersey, and Western New York.

In some cases, when applying for immigration, you and your biological relative, who is a US citizen and is sponsoring you, require DNA tests. These DNA tests help you apply with the authenticity of your relation and clearance. They can also help the embassy with passport verification and granting citizenship.

Steps of DNA Testing For DNA Testing for USA Immigration from Jamaica:

Step 1:

Your biological relative contacts us as a petitioner. They may be a permanent legal resident or US citizen. We will provide them with all the details and requirements for the process.

Step 2:

After they contact us, they need to purchase the DNA kit for testing, which we have available at a low rate as compared to what you find on the market. The applicant or the petitioner won’t be receiving the physical kit but we will take care of everything. All they have to do is to provide us with visa and personal details so that we can match your case with our DNA service. We will then arrange an appointment with the petitioner based in the US with a certified lab for testing.

Step 3:

Once the test is complete, the lab will deliver your kit to the US embassy in Jamaica and we will notify you and the embassy about the case. After that, we will fix an appointment on your conveyance on time and date you are available. You will receive a call from the embassy for the confirmation of the appointment. Only the applicant can be present at the time of DNA test sample collection. For minors, one of the parents or guardians can assist with the application but you have to notify the embassy when you receive the call.

Step 4:

You have to pay the fees to the hospital that we will provide you, and you have to bring the receipt from the hospital along with you at the time of appointment. We will provide you with the physician at the embassy who will collect your test samples.

Step 5:

When arriving at the embassy for sample collection, you have to bring the following documents:

• Passport
• Photocopy of your passport’s valid biographic information page
• A photograph (passport size)
• Receipt of the sample collection fees from the hospital

Missing any of these documents will result in the rescheduling of your appointment.

Step 6:

The process is painless and quick, which includes a swab that the physician will obtain by rubbing the inside of your cheek. Your cheek cells will stick on the swab and from those cells’ DNA, the lab in the US will perform the test.

Step 7:

Once the physician collects your sample, he/she will seal and hand over the kit to the American officer who will be present at the time of sample collection. That officer will process and send the testing kit to the testing laboratory in the US to analyze your DNA.

Step 8:

After the testing, the lab will share your and your relative’s test results with the Embassy. Once testing is done, we will notify you about the details and provide you with results. After that, you may start your process of applying for the visa.
