For SAECKs collected after January 1, 2018, where the kit was not submitted because the survivor did not want the kit tested meaning did not report the crime to law enforcement, should that kit be submitted for testing?

No.

This would be considered an unreported, or anonymous SAECK under G.S. 15A-266.5A(b)(6). After a review to confirm the survivor did not consent to participate in the criminal justice process by reporting the crime to law enforcement, these SAECKs are to be sent to the Law Enforcement Support Services (LESS) Warehouse with the Department of Public of Safety.
