Hi! I need to translate my husband's birth certificate from german to english. But agencies they ask toooo much money for translation of 25 words :crying: (sometimes even 200$$$$). Do I need to attach husband's birth certificate (he's petitioner) with I-130 form? or I can skip it and just send copy of his passport and naturalization? Thank you.

06 June 2008 -- Entered US as J-1 visitor.

05 March 2009 -- F-1 status approved

16 September 2009 -- Married in Chicago, IL.

If your husband was born in Germany, the city where he was born/registered should be able to issue an international birth certificate for just 10 Euros.

I am still registered in Germany and my mom picked one up for me.

All the fields of the certificate are labeled in German/English/French and I believe even Spanish...

The VJ guides states: Copy of the Full Birth certificate (front and back) for the US Citizen or a copy of ALL pages of the US Citizen's passport. This is used to establish citizenship.

Also, have you considered asking a local German teacher/instructor to translate the BC for you?

That's what she said she doesn't want: spend $80 to $120 for a 5-minute job, and I don't blame her.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

As ColtSeavers said, just order an international birth certificate from the city where he was born. You should be able to locate the office in charge by searching for Geburtsurkunde on the city's website. It's much cheaper than getting his old one translated.
