Have you had to provide the results from a DNA test to any of those groups? I've never been asked to "prove" what I've self-reported, even though I do not look anything like what I am checking off as my ethnicity.

I haven't ever been challenged for proof, but typically provide it if anyone even questions it. Nobody demanded proof, but they questioned it, so I volunteered.

One came from a recruiter with a diversity quota who mostly cared that I would be consistent and the other was for a scholarship for people with Jamaican background.
