Translated Documents

[C and M 6]

Hey all,

 

I’m just getting my documents together for my spouse, and my spouse will send me the necessary documents for USCIS. I know that marriage certificates, amongst others, need to be translated by a professional organization. My question is... do affidavits need to be professionally translated as well? I can read and write in my spouse’s native language, so I could translate that. What’s the proper way to go about this?

 

Thank you!

Not true.  Just needs to be certified by the party doing the translation.   Yes you could do it yourself or anyone competent enough. Use the search button above and you can find examples.

No need for a professional organization.  Anyone who is competent in both languages can certify a translation.   Each document must have the statement below attached:
