How Does Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) DNA Work? The Science Explained
During pregnancy, fetal DNA circulates in the mother’s blood.
With NIPP, a safe maternal blood sample is collected and compared to the alleged father’s cheek swab.
Advanced genetic analysis provides clear answers without invasive procedures.
Testing as early as 7 weeks into pregnancy—no need to wait!
Why is NIPP safer than traditional methods?
NIPP avoids extracting amniotic fluid or tissue—no risk of miscarriage, no jeopardy to mother or baby (NIPP safety explained).

Colorado DNA Testing Requirements and Legal Information
In Colorado, several resources are available to assist parents in establishing paternity. The Colorado Department of Human Services offers services for paternity establishment, including genetic testing if necessary. Hospitals in the state often provide opportunities for unmarried parents to complete voluntary acknowledgment of paternity (VAP) forms shortly after a child's birth. Additionally, legal aid organizations and family law attorneys can provide valuable assistance in navigating the paternity determination process, ensuring that both parents' rights and responsibilities are addressed appropriately. These resources are crucial for Colorado families seeking to establish paternity and ensure that children have access to essential benefits and support.
Frequently Asked Questions About Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity Testing (NIPP) in Colorado
What is Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) Testing in Colorado?
Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) testing is a safe DNA test that uses a blood sample from the pregnant mother and a cheek swab from the alleged father to determine biological paternity with no risk to the baby or mother. In Colorado, legal parentage (paternity) is governed by the Colorado Uniform Parentage Act, and parentage usually must be established before a court or the Child Support Services (CSS) program can enter child support or parenting orders, as explained on the Judicial Branch’s “Establish Someone as a Parent” page.
How does NIPP testing work in Colorado?
A certified laboratory analyzes fetal DNA from the mother’s blood and compares it to the alleged father’s DNA, typically producing a very high probability of paternity (often 99.9%+ for an inclusion). Colorado law provides that in any case where parentage is in issue, the court—on its own motion or that of any party—shall order the mother, child, and alleged father to submit to genetic testing, and a man is presumed to be the father if testing is properly performed and shows at least a 97% probability of paternity, under C.R.S. § 13‑25‑126 – Genetic tests to determine parentage.
Who can request prenatal paternity testing in Colorado?
Any party in a parentage case (mother, alleged father, or other interested party) can file a motion asking the court to order genetic testing; the Colorado Judicial Branch notes that if the alleged parent will not admit the child is theirs, “you can ask for genetic testing to be done using JDF 1505 Motion for Genetic Testing or JDF 1507 Motion to Dispense with Genetic Testing,” as described on the “Establish Someone as a Parent” self‑help page. Parents can also get help from the county Child Support Services office, which can start the process to establish parentage and order genetic testing in IV‑D cases, as explained on the CSS “Parentage” page.
Is NIPP testing court-admissible in Colorado?
Yes. When NIPP is collected with full chain of custody and processed by an appropriately accredited lab, its results can satisfy Colorado’s requirements for “genetic tests” in paternity cases. C.R.S. § 13‑25‑126 states that properly performed tests are self‑authenticating, are admissible without foundation testimony in parentage and related actions, and create a presumption of paternity if the man is not excluded and has at least a 97% probability of paternity, as summarized in § 13‑25‑126.
What does NIPP testing cost in Colorado?
Informational (peace‑of‑mind) NIPP through GameDay DNA usually starts at about $1,099 for an at‑home prenatal kit, which you can order from the GameDay DNA prenatal peace‑of‑mind page.
Legal, court‑admissible NIPP with full chain of custody typically starts around $1,499 through GameDay DNA’s legal non‑invasive prenatal paternity service.
For standard cheek‑swab DNA tests, a Colorado Judicial Branch FAQ notes that “these tests usually cost between $90 and $225,” and that if you are adjudicated the father you will usually be required to repay the state for the cost of the test, as described in the “Paternity Issues” FAQ and CSS rules on Genetic Testing Costs.
How quickly are NIPP results available in Colorado?
Most NIPP tests provide results in about 3–5 business days after the lab receives all samples, and many providers offer expedited processing for urgent timelines. GameDay DNA details its standard and rush turnaround on the non‑invasive prenatal paternity testing page.
Does insurance cover prenatal paternity testing in Colorado?
Most health insurance plans treat prenatal paternity testing as elective and do not cover it, so families usually pay privately or use payment plans. For post‑birth genetic testing in child support cases, CSS offices can arrange testing and pay the lab initially, then seek a judgment for the costs against the adjudicated father, as required by 9 CCR 2504‑1‑6.605 – Genetic Testing and described on county CSS pages such as Jefferson County’s “How We Can Help”.
Where can I get NIPP testing or an at-home kit in Colorado?
Colorado families can order an at‑home NIPP kit for informational use directly from GameDay DNA’s prenatal peace‑of‑mind kit page. For legal, court‑admissible testing, they typically work with accredited DNA collection sites and local CSS offices or courts; legal guides such as the Colorado Family Law Guide on Paternity & Unmarried Parents explain how genetic testing is used in Colorado paternity cases, and providers like GameDay DNA list multiple Colorado locations offering legal DNA tests.
How do I update a child’s birth certificate after legal paternity is established in Colorado?
For an unmarried birth with no father/second parent listed, Colorado allows parents to add a father or second parent to the birth certificate by filing a properly completed Voluntary Acknowledgment of Parentage (VAP) form with the state office, as explained on the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment’s “Correct or change a birth certificate” page and county guidance like Adams County’s birth certificate information. When parentage is determined by a court (for example, in a parentage case under the Colorado Uniform Parentage Act), parents must submit certified court‑determined parentage documents and a completed data worksheet to CDPHE, as required by C.R.S. § 25‑2‑115 – Alteration of certificates and described on CDPHE’s vital records home page.
