Thanks you. We only have three weeks to get this together. THanks, Debbie

English translators right? My husband's brother in law is a translator and guide in Marrakech. He speaks English pretty well, he actually translates mostly Spanish but I will ask. I will try to find out the company he works for. If you give me the dates etc. I might be able to help more. He might know someone if he's not able to.

Hi--[his interview is Sept 6. Thanks, just let me know asap. I appreciate it. Debbie




PS--It also says it must be a "certified" translator.

Are you talking about at the interview? Or translating a document? Let me know as I can tell you places that do translating super cheap (couple dollars) I guess I just need some more info to get you the right person!

Hi--He needs someone to translate his paper documents into English. Thanks for the info. PS--Hopefully from Marrakech. Debbie

I know I used to have a list of translators in Morocco (including some in Marrakech, where my husband is from)--I think I got a list off of VJ, or from someone on VJ...

It should be on my old computer (at work) or backed up on our server...if you don't find someone soon let me know and I'll do a little searching!

They might also have a list of certified translators on Casa's website?

Good luck!
Carolyn

I found this FAQ on the Casablanca consulate website:

Can the ACS Unit at the Consulate translate documents and “certify” translations?
Unfortunately, the ACS unit cannot translate documents or “certify” other translations. We do, however, maintain a list of official translators, the translations by whom the ACS unit will certify. A list of translators may be requested at the time of registration or by emailing: acscasablanca@state.gov.

Hi - My husband went to a translator in Babt Khala beside the bus station for buses to Casa. Or he said there are some in Sharer alal Assasi area. I think it cost him about $10-15. He could also go to the American Language Center in Gueleiz and ask and they can give him an exact address for someone. If he needs directions my husband said that he could call him. PM and I will give you the phone number if you want. Hope that helps.

Thanks so much. Hamid's uncle knows one in Marrakech. If he does not work out, we will call you. Thanks so much!! Debbie

Hi--Thanks so much. Hamid is still stuck in Casa deailng with the doctors, by the way, who tell him that they can't give him a copy of his physical tests--still more Casa BS. And, so far, costs more than $200.00. Anyway, he says the translator in Marrakech charges like 10.00 a page. Are you saying that your hubby paid $10-15 for the whole thing, or that much per page? We have like 9 pages to translate and money is getting tight right now.

Anyway, I do appreciate any help you can give us. Yes, he knows where the bus station is. It might be helpful for him to talk to your hubby. Could you please give us his phone number and I will tell Hamid when I talk to him tonight and see what he wants to do. He has to go to the chest xray doc tomorrow in Casa, so he is still there. That might be better to just go ahead and do it all there. I am going to try to get your email to Hamid. Thanks again. Debbie
