Frequently asked questions

How much do certified translation services in Chicago cost?

Pricing depends on document length, language, and complexity. Send your file for an exact quote.

Do USCIS translations need to be notarized?

Usually, no. USCIS requires a certified translation with a signed statement, not notarization.

What should a certified translation include?

A complete translation of all visible text and a signed certification statement confirming accuracy.

Can I translate my own documents and certify them?

Self-translation is risky and often rejected. Use a professional service to avoid delays.

What must a certified translation include?

A certified translation must include a full translation of all visible text, a signed Certificate of Accuracy, and the translator’s full name, contact details, signature, and date. This is the standard required by USCIS, the UK Home Office, courts, and most official bodies.

Can I send a phone photo instead of a scanned PDF?

Yes. A clear photo is fine. We’ll confirm if it’s readable and advise if a better image is needed for any page before we start.

How much does a certified translation cost?

Pricing depends on document length, language pair, and turnaround. Short standard documents are typically priced per page; multi-page packs are quoted as a set. Send your file for a free quote.

Is my document kept confidential?

Yes. Your documents are handled securely and only shared with the linguists and reviewers needed to complete your translation project.
