Certified Translation

[vancedan 5]

So, I am performing my last check through beofre send off my I-129F and noticed one thing I want to be clear on certifications. On the website it is a bit ambiguous as to whether they want one certification for each document or one that goes for all the documents. On the website it says:

Please submit certified translations for all foreign language documents. The translator must certify that s/he is competent to translate and that the translation is accurate.

The certification format should include the certifier's name, signature, address, and date of certification. A suggested format is:

Certification by Translator

I [typed name], certify that I am fluent (conversant) in the English and ________ languages, and that the above/attached document is an accurate translation of the document attached entitled ______________________________.

Signature_________________________________

Date Typed Name

Address

Does anyone have a clearer idea?

I understood it to mean that each document translation had to be individually certified. This understanding comes from the following line of the Certification:

I [typed name], certify that I am fluent (conversant) in the English and ________ languages, and that the above/attached document is an accurate translation of the document attached entitled ______________________________.

Each of my translated documents are individually certified.

Most certified translators have (and should have) that information stated on the papers that they are translating. I was wondering the same thing you were when i was doing mine, but when I had the papers in my hands I noticed it was correct. Just make sure you are going to a place is certified to do these translations, that's all.

Good luck with your journey!
