Translation of Birth Certificate/police certificate

[goodgood 25]

Maybe someone had the same question: once you are married, you have to apply for green card and uscis requires translation Of the birth certificate. So what this translation should have? Should I go to notary? Or it can be just a professional translator who states the translation is accurate?

Notary is not needed.

 

You have 2 options:

 

1. Self translate the whole document if you're fluent in both English and the foreign language on the document. Add a certification by translator to your translation.

 

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 ______________________________.

2. Use a professional translator. They'll usually stamp saying the translation is true and accurate and sign off.

We used a certified translator, but the other option @KULtoATL mentioned is also acceptable.
