Don't take the risk. I used ASTA-USA to translate my birth certificate, and they give you a signed document that they are a legit translator as well.

My wife is Ukrainian, arrived on K1, and is currently filling out the AOS forms. It is a requirement to submit a photocopy of her birth certificate.

 

Her English is near-native. Can she translate the birth certificate herself?

 Anyone who is fluent in both languages can translate and certify the translation.  Many people, here, have done so. Just make sure the following statement is attached:

My wife is applying for AOS and her birth certificate certificate is in a foreign language. She is capable of doing the translations herself as she is fluent in English.

I know that she needs to include a statement along with the translation.

My question is, should she do the translation? Make a photocopy of the original document and write English on the photocopy using a pen? Type it out on a separate sheet of paper?
