Every immigration application submitted to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that includes foreign-language documents must be accompanied by a complete English translation certified by a competent translator. Under federal regulation 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), USCIS requires that your translation be word-for-word accurate and include a signed statement from the translator certifying their competency in both languages. Our USCIS-certified translation service meets every strict government requirement — guaranteed.

What USCIS Requires in a Certified Translation
Navigating immigration paperwork is stressful, and a minor formatting or certification error can trigger a costly Request for Evidence (RFE), delaying your application by months. To satisfy federal immigration officers, your document translation must adhere to three non-negotiable requirements under 8 CFR 103.2:
Completeness
The translation must be an absolute word-for-word replication of the original text. This includes translating stamps, seals, signatures, margins, and handwritten notations. No summaries or interpretations are allowed.
Competency Declaration
The translator must explicitly state that they are fluent and competent to translate from the source language into English.
Official Certification Statement
The document must be accompanied by a formal, signed cover sheet verifying its accuracy and authenticity.

Why Human Translation Matters for USCIS
While AI tools and automated apps have grown popular, USCIS does not accept purely AI-generated translations. Automated software lacks the human accountability required by federal agencies.
Vetted Human Professionals
Every single document handled by CertifyTranslate is processed by a professional human translator.
Native-Speaking Experts
Your translator will be a native speaker of the target language with a minimum of 5+ years of document translation experience.
Nuance & Context
Human experts understand cultural context, regional legal dialects, and faded handwriting that automated systems misread.
How to Submit Your USCIS Translation
To ensure the smoothest possible review by your immigration officer, keep these proven submission tips in mind:
Always Keep Your Originals
Never mail your only original foreign document to USCIS. You will submit clean copies.
Submit Side-by-Side Pairs
Place the original foreign-language copy directly underneath the certified English translation.
Ensure Page Symmetry
Ensure the number of pages in your source document matches the pages on your Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Clear Scans Only
Ensure all four corners are visible and text is sharp. We accept high-resolution scans and clear smartphone photos.
