So we're just waiting for the letter to arrive after our case was approved.

 

I'm reading that we have to send them birth certificate, marriage certificate, military papers and so on.

 

We're applying from Denmark thru the Swedish Embassy in Stockholm.

 

The question is:

Do we have to translate anything since everything is in Danish and the website states:

Please note that all documents not written in English, or in the official language of the country from which you are applying, must be accompanied by certified translations.

We're a little split between translating everything to English or keeping them in Danish since we are applying from Denmark and everything is in Danish which is the official language - which the USCIS guide states.

 

But since the embassy is in Sweden we're not sure Danish will be sufficient.

 

Has anyone else had a similar situation and can help clear this up?

The Embassy or Consulate is where you are applying from.  It would NOT be the Swedish Embassy in Stockholm, but rather the US Embassy in Stockholm.  Translate the documents.
