The DNA Family Check Cousin Test is a reliable method of investigating first cousin relationships. However, unlike paternity or maternity tests, cousin tests provide a statistical likelihood rather than a definitive answer. The results are provided as a “combined kinship index” indicating the likelihood of the tested individuals being related as cousins.
Once the samples arrive at our state-of-the-art laboratory, your results will be ready in just 1-2 business days. You can easily keep track of your test status within your secure online portal, and we’ll notify you the moment your results are available.
A kinship index is a value that indicates the likelihood of a biological relationship between two individuals. If the kinship index result is less than 1.00, this indicates non-relatedness. If the kinship index is greater than 1.00, this indicates that the two tested individuals are more likely to be true biological relatives. The higher the value of the kinship index, the stronger the likelihood that the two individuals are true biological relatives.
While the Home Cousin DNA Test provides valuable information, particularly in cases where the alleged parent is unavailable, it’s important to understand that it’s not as definitive as a paternity or maternity test. The Cousin DNA Test offers a probability or likelihood of a biological relationship, rather than a conclusive result. It is a valuable tool when direct parentage tests are not feasible, helping to piece together family relationships.

Yes, we can accommodate testing individuals who live in different cities or countries by splitting the kit and sending each component to the specified locations. When your sample kits arrive at the lab, our lab will match the samples using the unique identification numbers provided in each kit. To arrange a split kit, include the full names and mailing addresses of each person in the comments box of the online order form or contact our customer support team.
While our home Cousin Test provides the same accurate results compared to our legal tests, it is not admissible for legal purposes as it is not a chain-of-custody test. Legal testing requires sampling to be done and witnessed by a third-party impartial collector, and all participants must provide identification at the time of the appointment.

Testimonials
“My ex-girlfriend contacted me to say that I may be the father of her 5 year old daughter. Your test proved that I am the true biological father. It’s a life changer. Thank you.”

“My husband has always mentioned that our two children maybe did not belong to him and accused me of being involved with his friend at the time that our children were conceived. I knew that this was not true. We finally decided to get a paternity test done to put an end to this. Sure enough, the results of the paternity test indicated greater than 99.9999% that he was the father of our children. Our family is now closer than ever before.”
R. Stern, Seattle, WA
“A++++. Near the date that my test was scheduled to be completed, I was so nervous that I ended up calling your lab almost once every hour. Thank you for putting up with me. I won’t forget your kindness.”
