É só ir aí no site da Junta Comercial do Paraná e clicar em tradudores juramentados que vai aparecer uma lista. No google vc tb deve achar empresas que fazem tradução juramentada.

oh legal. Obrigada. Eu não estou em Curitiba agora, mas morei lá a vida inteira então tudo que eu fizer vai ser lá, os exames, police records, etc.

Oh I didn't even notice we were speaking portuguese

Me neither! But for the interview you´d only have to translate the documents that are not in English or Portuguese. You can use the documents in Portuguese just fine.

Only tip is to get a sworn translation of your birth certificate for the AOS.

before i leave brazil? Can't i do that when i get in the US?

Won´t it be harder to find a sworn translator from Portuguese there?

My packet 3 instructions say:

TRANSLATIONS: All documents not in English must be accompanied by a certified English translation.

I don't know. There's a bunch of brazilians in the States but good advice i probably must do it here. I'll add to my to do list.

Every brazilian I met during this process advised me to get this done while here, simpler, cheaper, and one less thing to worry about when it comes to AOS time (apparently it gets more confusing than K1).

I can't even imagine something more confusing than this process. Are they competing with the rocket scientists?

SENKA,

Can you quote the words used in the instruction? And does the instruction give any indication as to what entity or entities are accepted to provide the certification to the translator? (What entity certified the translators you found and paid?)

I'm not saying that you are wrong, but I will say that many people incorrectly read the words 'the translation must be certified by the translator' to mean 'the translation must be done by a certified translator'.

In my instructions in Packet 3 from Vancouver consulate, it was specified that all translations have to be stamped by certified translator. And I lived in 2 other contries than Canada, so had to find and pay the translators.

I will post exact words from my Packet 3 once I get home, I am at work now, but I am sure all translated documents have to be with a stamp from certified translator. And in Canada also, to be a certified translator one has to pass the exam and pay annual fees to continue to provide this service. And in Calgary where I live, there was only one certified translator for languages I needed. So, it was a lot of hassle to have this done, but I did it and they had no complaints at the interview.

Here it is, exact instructions from Packet 3:

TRANSLATIONS: All documents not in English must be accompanied by a certified English translation.
