Our process

How a Certified Translation Is Prepared

  1. Translation

    A translator who works in the source language prepares the text for its readers in English.

  2. Review

    A second reader checks accuracy and completeness against the original.

  3. Certificate

    The translation comes with a signed certification statement that it is complete and accurate.

Questions About Certified Translation in Iowa

Does USCIS Require a Sworn Translator?
No. USCIS requires a signed certification statement from the translator, which states that the translation is complete and accurate.
Do You Handle Bosnian, Karen and Burmese?
Yes. Des Moines, Cedar Rapids and Waterloo have established Bosnian, Karen, Karenni, Burmese and Sudanese communities. We translate birth certificates, marriage certificates, school records and court orders in these languages for USCIS filings and Iowa court matters.
Do Your Translations Meet the Requirements of Iowa Courts?
Our certified translations include a signed certification statement from the translator, in the format that Iowa district courts typically expect for foreign-language exhibits. The Iowa Judicial Branch coordinates qualified interpreters separately for in-court testimony.
How Long Does It Take?
It depends on the length and complexity of the document. Send yours and we will confirm the timing in the quote.
