I am applying now for AOS; i have my italian birth certificate. Is it enough if i translate it, or should i let it translate professionally. If i have to do it professionally, does someone know a website where i can send it and let it do?

I tanslated it by myself and had my signature notarized; USCIS seems to be ok with that ;at the end of translation You need to ad a statement that You are fluent in English and able to translate foregin language into English; good luck

03/2007 - K1 approved

04/2007 - Apply for AOS & EAD

07/2007 - EAD approved

02/2010 - Permanent Residency approved

11/2010 - Apply for Citizenship

I translated my fiance's birth certificate and had it notorized.The USCIS accepted it.If you do it professionally,it is like 70usd per document,that can add up,and it's too much money.

May 7,2007-USCIS received I-129f
July 24,2007-NOA1 was received
April 21,2008-K-1 visa denied.
June 3,2008-waiver filed at US Consalate in Panama
The interview went well,they told him it will take another 6 months for them to adjudicate the waiver
March 3,2009-US Consulate claims they have no record of our December visit,nor Manuel's interview
March 27,2009-Manuel returned to the consulate for another interrogation(because they forgot about December's interview),and they were really rude !
April 3,2009-US Counsalate asks for more court documents that no longer exist !
June 1,2009-Manuel and I go back to the US consalate AGAIN to give them a letter from the court in Colon along with documents I already gave them last year.I was surprised to see they had two thick files for his case !


June 15,2010-They called Manuel in to take his fingerprints again,still no decision on his case!
June 22,2010-WAIVER APPROVED at 5:00pm
July 19,2010-VISA IN MANUELITO'S HAND at 3:15pm!
July 25,2010-Manuelito arrives at 9:35pm at Logan Intn'l Airport,Boston,MA

My was in Spanish and I translated it myself but my husband got a little paranoid and took the copy that I translated along with the original and went to a "professional". They charged him $50 dollar's and didn't change a word of my translation, they did notarized it.
