Are DNA Tests Required For Immigration purposes?

Many people who are considering going through the immigration filing process believe Immigration DNA testing is a requirement. As we currently understand it and according to USCIS Request for Evidence (RFE) letters, petitioners receive from an immigration office. DNA testing is an option USCIS or an Embassy provides a family in order to prove a biological relationship. The immigration paperwork also states that DNA testing is voluntary and that submitting a DNA test result does guarantee approval of the petition.

The RFE also states if additional evidence is requested in the accompanying letters, it must be submitted. The petition must also be supported by acceptable evidence of the date of birth and nationality of your family member. Petitions lacking such evidence may be denied in spite of DNA evidence.
