Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about certified translation services in New York State.

Do you provide certified translation services in New York State for USCIS?

Yes. Every certified translation we provide includes a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy — exactly what USCIS expects. Our translations are accepted by USCIS, courts, universities, and other official bodies throughout New York State and beyond.

What is a certified translation in New York?

A certified translation is a complete, accurate translation of your document accompanied by a signed statement from the translator confirming that the translation is true and complete to the best of their knowledge. This is the standard required by USCIS, courts, and most official organizations.

Will my certified translation be accepted by courts, schools, or agencies in NY?

Properly certified translations are widely accepted. Different organizations may have specific format requirements — we tailor the presentation to match what your receiving authority expects, so your documents are accepted first time.

Do I need notarization for a certified translation in New York State?

Not in most cases. A certified translation with a signed Certificate of Accuracy is sufficient for USCIS, most courts, universities, and employers. Notarization is only required if the receiving organization specifically requests it. We can advise you and provide notarization when needed.

What must a certified translation include?

A proper certified translation must include: a complete word-for-word translation of all visible text, a signed Certificate of Accuracy confirming truth and completeness, the translator’s full name, signature, contact details, and date. We include all of these elements as standard.

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

Yes. Clear, well-lit phone photos are accepted. Make sure the entire document is visible, all text is readable, and there are no shadows or blurs. If we can’t read any part, we’ll let you know before starting.

How much does a certified translation cost?

The cost depends on the document length, language pair, and turnaround speed. Upload your document and tell us your deadline — we’ll provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually within minutes.

Is my document kept confidential?

Absolutely. All documents are handled securely and stored on encrypted systems. We follow strict confidentiality protocols for personal, legal, and sensitive documents. Your information is never shared with third parties.
