Hello,


I am French and at the NVC stage.


along with the AOS or IV packages, the US immigration services are requesting specific documents.



I have some questions for the French people here about some documents:



Birth certificate: France can issue a "translated certificated", called Multilanguage


--> did anyone ever tried to use this Multilanguage?


http://vosdroits.ser...ulaire-contacts



for the other documents, as per Casier Judiciaire or Certificat de position militaire, did you have to go through a NOTARIZED (certified) translation ?


If yes, do you have addresses in the Paris or Versailles region ?



and finally, for the passport copies: do these copies absolutely have to be notarized ?




thanks a lot for your answers !

Bonjour!

I'm not sure if this can help you but I submitted my AoS with this "multi-langues" birth certificate and it was fine.

I'm pretty sure the U.S Embassy in Paris, will be more than ok with it.

You don't need to get a notarized translation :

Many people on here did translate by themselves documents they submitted to the USCIS.

The U.S Embassy in France accepts both French and English documents.

Bon courage!

Thanks. I will ask for such already-translated document.

Regarding the non-requirement for notarized translations: does this mean I can do the translation myself for the following documents and send them to the NVC ?

- certificat de position militaire

- casier judiciaire

good news for the US embassy, because such notarized translations can be very expensive.

thanks for the feedback

Not 100% sur for the "certificat de position militaire" but you don't need to notarize the "casier judiciaire" document. Make sure it is translated by a certified translator *AND* send the original! I requested 2-3 copies of the same document.

Bon courage ;)

You can request very easily the casier judiciaire document over the internet.
