Translating Emails for...

 Share

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I am going to submit emails between myself (USC) and my fiance. The emails are in Spanish AND English. I am assuming that since all they are looking for is proof of a relationship, the emails do not need to be translated.

Opinions? Or should I have them translated?

Thanks!!!!

A great marriage is not when the "perfect couple" comes together.

It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.

BE WHO YOU ARE AND SAY WHAT YOU FEEL, BECAUSE THOSE WHO MIND DONT MATTER AND THOSE WHO MATTER DONT MIND

YOU CANT CHANGE THE PAST BUT YOU CAN RUIN THE PRESENT BY WORRYING OVER THE FUTURE

TRIP.... OVER LOVE, AND YOU CAN GET UP

FALL.... IN LOVE, AND YOU FALL FOREVER

I DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT, JUST NOT THE ABILITY

LIKE THE MEASLES, LOVE IS MOST DANGEROUS WHEN IT COMES LATER IN LIFE

LIFE IS NOT THE WAY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE, ITS THE WAY IT IS

I MAY NOT BE WHERE I WANT TO BE BUT IM SURE NOT WHERE I WAS

Yes... use your discretion. You only need to provide proof that you met within the last 2 years... think of things that can't be 'faked' or doctored, which is why passport stamps are perfect. I supplied copied of ticket stubs and grocery receipts for my visits to Germany during the times I was there. I didn't have those translated specifically, but I noted what they were for.

We only sent 5 e-mails with our I-129F, so if it's easier you could just send the e-mails in English.

Otherwise everything that you send to the USCIS needs to be in English - or in the original language WITH the translation (not done by you or your fiance).

When it comes to the interview your documents can be in English and Spanish but not when dealing with the USCIS. Sorry.

We had to have all of our documents translated.

09/2006 - Apply for K1

03/2007 - K1 approved

04/2007 - Apply for AOS & EAD

07/2007 - EAD approved

I had the same questions and finally decided to translate everything for the I-129F. I had a friend translate our e-mails and sign the statement saying they are fluent in both languages. Ultimately it is up to you, so best of luck.
