Certified Translation Services in Louisiana

Certified Translation Services in Louisiana

Louisiana is the most linguistically diverse state in the US, with over 4.4 million foreign-born residents and more than 200 languages spoken across its 62 counties. Spanish, Chinese, Russian, Bengali, Haitian Creole, and Korean are spoken by millions across the metro areas, New Orleans metro, Jefferson Parish, and statewide Louisiana. The New Orleans and Shreveport USCIS Field Offices handle among the highest immigration caseloads in the country, and every foreign-language document submitted — whether for an I-485 adjustment of status, a naturalization application, or a family petition — must be accompanied by a certified translation meeting the requirements of 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). Official Translations provides USCIS-accepted certified translations to individuals, law firms, businesses, and students across every Louisiana city and county, starting at $29.95 per page.
