Delayed Results in Excess of 30 Days
While we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date, we expect the majority of customers to receive their DNA results within 3 business days of being received at the lab. However in the event our lab is unable to process your request, and such delay is the result of an issue with us, within 30 days of us receiving your sample you may cancel your order for a full refund, account credit or Replacement Kit.
