Birth Certificate Translation

[Laura&Eric 0]

For the Birth Certificate translation for AOS, can I translate my own document since I am fluent in both languages?

In the USCIS web page it says: Please submit certified translations for all foreign language documents. The translator must certify that s/he is competent to translate and that the translation is accurate.

The certification format should include the certifier's name, signature, address, and date of certification. A suggested format is:

Certification by Translator

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

Signature_________________________________

Date Typed Name

Address

So can I translate my own document or it has to be a 3rd party?

Yes you can, and you include the certification on a separate page.
