Certified Translation for USCIS: What You Need to Know
USCIS requires that every foreign-language document submitted with a petition or application be accompanied by a certified English translation. Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), the translator must certify competency in both the source language and English, and must confirm the translation is complete and accurate. Official Translations delivers fully compliant certified translations accepted for all USCIS forms including I-130, I-485, I-90, N-400, and I-751. Request a free quote with your document details.
Whether you are filing for permanent residency (green card), a K-1 fiancé or spouse visa, asylum, or naturalization, the translation requirements are the same: a word-for-word certified translation with a signed certificate of accuracy. We translate all common immigration documents — birth certificates, marriage certificates, divorce decrees, police clearances, academic transcripts, and more — in over 100 languages.
Unlike notarized translations (which USCIS does not require), a certified translation with a competency certificate is the official standard. Our translations are formatted to match your original document and include all stamps, signatures, and layout elements. Need documents for immigration court as well? We cover EOIR proceedings in addition to USCIS filings. Start your order today and receive your certified translation within 24 hours.
