Hello,

I have a question about the documents translation.

It's about the documents I will have to bring with me to the interview and my lawyer told me they need to be translated.

He said they don't need to be done by an approved translator and that he can translate them himself for $400 for less than 10 pages... I don't mind paying but don't want to find out that in fact they need to be translated by an approved translator once I arrive at the interview and have to pay again... I have already paid my lawyer $3,000 for the K-3 process and i'lm the one who tells him what to send and when since he screwed up on the I-129F making us lose 3 months in the process... all that to say he is greedy and I want to be sure I don't need an embassy approved translator first.

If I do, where do I find the list of approved translators? The embassy who will hold the interview will be Fiji for me since I'm in the south pacific.

Thank you for your advice,

Christine.

I'm not sure about these two countries but for us we had to have this, her birth certificate, police record and a single certificate (never married) done in Chinese and English.We had to get a notary in China to give us the english version as well as the chinese version of these forms.I'm sorry, your country I don't know, contact a notary in the country your asking about.Would be better to contact them to be sure.

Don't pay for something you can get for free.
