My husband's AOS interview will be in March, and on the appointment letter it says that if he doesn't speak fluently, he needs to bring a translator. Since his interview is based on marriage, I am coming with him (he had a K1 visa). Am I allowed to translate, or does it have to be a third party? He can speak conversational English, but since it's a USCIS interview, it won't really be "conversational," and he isn't fluent yet.

The provision for bringing a translator exists expressly because your statement above is false. My wife had been here 18 months before her AOS interview and there's no way she would have managed without a translator. Fortunately, I confirmed in advance that her daughter, also interviewing with us was allowed to translate.

Not one word of my wife's visa interview was spoken in English on either side of the conversation.

I have been calling USCIS to find out if a family member is acceotable to translate for my husband and I can't get thourh for the past 2 dyas (thursday and friday)... I also tried today but I can't find a way to connect to a representative...

Could I for sure take my brother or sister to be an interpreter? Please advice... I know this is a bit late.... :unsure:

You can email the local office directly from their website but yes a family member is an acceptable translator.
