DNA tests

Post by ukiron » Fri Oct 14, 2011 11:33 am


Hallo

Need help of those who knows.

I have ILR in UK and now I want to bring my wife and my two kids.
But to prove that the children are mine I have to do DNA test for whole family.
Does anyone knows DNA test provider in Russia approved by UKBA?

Thank you.

why do you think you need to do DNA test ?
what is wrong with birth certificates?
if you want to do them contact the embassy and ask them who they would suggest you use

cellmark is generally who the UKBA and solicitors use. Why do you think you need them?

Thank you for answers.
The reason I need DNA test is that we were not married when my kids were born. and I was not presented in Russia to do the necessary paper work when they were born.
I had refugee status,were not aloud to go to Russia for 5 years.

I have found http://www.dna-worldwide.com/
Do you think they are good enough?

I did contact embassy info centre but they say they don't have list,and it is not they responsibility to look for DNA centres but mine.
It seems they are not interested in helping me.

i have never heard of them and have only ever used cellmark which is also the company that British embassies usually recommend.

Do you have birth certificates of the kids?
Are you and your wife named as parents on the birth certificates?
