Why Richmond Residents Need Certified Translations
Richmond has a steadily growing foreign-born population – roughly 7.8% of residents per the latest US Census estimates, with about 10.5% of households speaking a language other than English at home. Richmond is one of the top U.S. refugee resettlement destinations for African populations, particularly Liberian, Eritrean, Ethiopian, and Somali communities, resettled through Commonwealth Catholic Charities and the International Rescue Committee (ACS 2022) This creates ongoing demand for certified translation services – for immigration applications routed through the Arlington Immigration Court (Richmond residents) or Annandale, court proceedings at the Richmond City Circuit Court, university admissions at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), University of Richmond, Virginia Union University, and employment, licensing, and medical records required by employers and regulators across Virginia.
