Do I need to bring translations to the USCIS interview?

When preparing for your EB-4 visa interview, it is important to pay attention to the details required by USCIS. A common question is whether it is necessary to present translations of documents during the interview.

The answer is simple: if the documents you provide are in a language other than English, you must bring them accompanied by complete and accurate translations. USCIS requires that all foreign language documents be accompanied by English translations containing a translator’s statement affirming that the translation is complete and faithful to the original content.

Make sure that this translation is properly certified. Although there is no specific requirement regarding the format of the certificate, it is essential that it includes the translator’s information, their qualification, and a statement that they are proficient in both languages – the original and English.

It is crucial to strictly follow U.S. immigration laws and meet all official requirements for your interview. Seek information directly from official sources and avoid falling prey to scams or promises of easy results through marketing campaigns from non-specialized sources. If you have doubts or need further guidance, consider consulting experienced immigration professionals to ensure that all your documentation is in order.
