Avuncular DNA Testing
The primary reason someone would choose an avuncular DNA test is to determine paternity when the presumed biological father is absent, usually because he has passed away, is incarcerated, or is not willing to submit to standard DNA testing. Determining paternity can be a critical help in many situations, including custody and child support orders, inheritance claims, acquisition of Social Security survivorship benefits, and establishing a family relationship for immigration sponsorship.
