DNA testing for immigration and family reunification?

One of the main reasons for this sudden increase in immigrants is family reunification. This is the major form of immigration in many countries. But after the increase in immigrants, many countries have released laws on immigration DNA Tests.

There are new country laws and policies that apply to family reunification. These new laws are to create balance in the individual right to family life and countries’ right to immigration control.
