Immigration Translation FAQ
Which USCIS applications require certified translations?
Any USCIS form that includes foreign-language supporting documents requires certified translations: I-130 family petitions, I-485 adjustment of status, N-400 naturalization, I-765 work permits, I-131 travel documents, I-589 asylum, I-864 affidavit of support, and others. Every foreign-language document in the packet — birth certificate, marriage certificate, police certificate, passport — must be translated.
I received an RFE asking for a certified translation — what do I do?
If USCIS sends a Request for Evidence asking for a certified translation, you need to provide a complete translation and respond by the RFE deadline. Bring the RFE notice and the original document to our office and we will prepare the translation promptly.
Can you translate immigration documents same-day for Near East residents?
For short documents (1–2 pages), same-day immigration translation is often available. Full application packets with multiple documents typically take 2–3 business days. Call our Columbus office to schedule.
Does a USCIS certified translation need to be notarized?
USCIS does not require translations to be notarized. The translator's signed certification statement is the required element. Some foreign consulates and state courts have different requirements.
Can you also prepare USCIS immigration forms in addition to the translations?
Yes. Asal Multi Services prepares USCIS immigration forms (I-130, I-485, N-400, I-765, and others) in addition to certified translations. We can handle your complete application packet in Near East.
How do I know which of my documents need certified translations?
Any document that is not in English and is included in your USCIS application packet needs a certified translation. USCIS instructions and form checklists list the required supporting documents — we can review your checklist with you at our Columbus office.
