I filed for my 8 year old daughter to come live with me and my wife here in the state. 
She went for the interview at the US embassy in Nigeria. After the interview a father and daughter DNA test was requested.

we just concluded the DNA. I was given a copy and a copy was sent to the embassy.

can someone please advise on what next? Do I need to go submit her passport and the DNA result at the drop off or do I wait on the embassy to contact me?

don't just send the DNA results in without a note with it to tell them the case # 

they won't take too much time trying to figure it out

A note saying case # and both names and both DOB's to guarantee they know it is for u and your daughter

He does not need to send the DNA results to the Embassy at all.  (Even if he did, they wouldn't take action on it, as hIs copy Is not consideredd the official results.)  The lab sends the official copy directly to the Embassy.

Got an email requesting of a new DS 260. I guess the one I submitted has expired. 
I don’t know how to request a nee DS260.
