What country?

You will need to prove the person was accomplished in both langauges

most of all our translations are made outside the US 

but this is so country dependent

USCIS knows what to look in each area

If you didn't send a "certified translation" then you'll need a new one that IS certified.  The instructions for certification are in the I-130 instructions.  Those are fine with some country specific exceptions.  Which country/language?

the document was translated from French to English  by a translator  in Algeria,

Anybody fully fluent in English and French can do a certified translation.  Make sure to submit both the French document and the translation.

The certification must be submitted at the same time as the translation.

 

Either get the original translator to do the certification and use the translation you already have or get someone else to do a new translation with the proper certification.

 

Sending in a certification by itself will not be sufficient.  The certification must be sent with the English translation.

 

Google USCIS certification translation block and use that.

That can work if you also certify the translation is correct.

Thanks every one just to explain : in April  i submitted for I130 form :

 

  • marriage act  : in french document  --> to   English version without the certification 
  • in october : they asked me to send the certification for  the marriage act that i submitted before.
  • i translated the
  • marriage contract : in  Arabic Document --> to  English  version with the certification .

 

can i send the Arabic translated version with the certification, even if the title of the document changed from marriage act to marriage contract " because first time i sent the french version not the arabic"  in algeria they provide documents in 2 languages french and arabic".

i didn't know which one to send back to the USCIS
