Hi All!

I had a question regarding the translation of certain documents to English. Does this need to by done by a goverment certified translator and be notarized etc., etc.... or is it okay to just have a professional translator do the translation? Any advice regarding the translation of documents for the K1 visa will be greatly appreciated! (FYI the translation is from Spanish to English)

Just a professional translation should do it.

For example I am translating all my documents my self. My fiancee is in Ukraine and she got documents in Ukranian and Russian. I am fluent in both of those languages including english.

If you are fluent in Spanish you can do a translation yourself as well. Just certify that you are fluent in both languages.

Thanks

I had my documents translated/notarized in one office that did both (also Spanish to English). And no, not a government certified translator. A professional can translate the papers and that is more than sufficient. Some people say that notarization is not necessary but I think that it may be beneficial if the cost is not too much. I paid $20.00 for the translation and notarization was free.

What documents are you talking about?

Are you just sending the I-129F or are you getting ready for the interview? cause, if I recall well, you only need to get translated the birth and police certificates and thats for the interview stage...I have the templates for those translations if you want them :thumbs: let me know, this is my email kai_47@hotmail.com I'll be more than glad to help you in all the process :yes:

God bless you!
