In the near future (or arguably now depending on your purpose) you don't even need that. Assuming enough of your relative's sequences are available, the probability of you having certain genes/mutations can be narrowed down so much that having your individual genome doesn't add much.

This does not seem true? Even if the complete genome of my mother and father is known, there is still a lot of uncertainty left.

Isn't that quite similar to help solving cold cases as example:

On April 24, 2018, authorities charged 72-year-old DeAngelo with eight counts of first-degree murder, based upon DNA evidence; investigators had identified members of DeAngelo's family through forensic genetic genealogy.

You don't have to reconstruct the genome in order to prove relationships or find a person.

Lets say there's some rare genetic disorder, only a few hundreds of a percent of the population has it. If someone knows that your mother or father has it, you now don't have a few hundreds of a percent chance of having it. Depending on the disorder you having it might just be a cointoss.
