doubts with documents

[catracha85 6]

Hello everybody, I would like to know is it okay

For us to translate some of the documents required

Ousrselves or can we get a family member to do it????????

I ask this because my husband was charged $45 for each

Page that he needed translated and he woulld like to

See if we can save some of that money by doing it

Ourselves. Any advice will be appreciated

I had previously read here on VJ that it can only be done by someone here in USA that is qualified in it. You can't cut corners on this.

My wife is from the Philippines and there legal documents are all in English. No

Well in my case i translated the papers myself and made them "certified" by an american friend of mine living in france. When i say "certified", i mean she had to write "i certify this translation is accurate and that i m compentent to in both French and English languages". Her name, adress, phone number, date and signature. And it turned out fine...

You can do anything you want but it at the discretion of

the US Embassy to accept any certified or notorized document

unless they do it at the embassy them self. Your suppose to have

copies and the orginals are forwarded to the Embassy and they will

return all orginals back to you at the interview.

I heard some places Embassy wouldnt take copies, it had to be the orginal only

and they made copies from the orginal them self.

Good Luck

I have heard of this being done also with positive results.

I would not do it myself, translators also put notary

bublic stamp on it, but that's just my opinion.

The certification letter is no big deal and will be accepted with 99% assurance. This is right from the USCIS web site--it really is no big deal:

I [typed name], certify that I am fluent (conversant) in the English and ________ languages, and that the attached document(s) is/are an accurate translation of the document(s) attached entitled ______________________________.
