Longueuil

## Certified Translator in Longueuil

- A certified translator in Longueuil is, by Quebec law, a member of OTTIAQ, the professional order that grants the reserved title of traducteur agréé (certified translator). For IRCC you can also use a translator who is not certified in Canada, when the translation comes with the translator’s affidavit sworn before a notary public outside Canada, which is how we work: online, with the translation sent by email.

## Translations for Longueuil, signed by professional translators

- A translator native in the target language, and a second translator checking every page
- The translator’s affidavit sworn before a notary public in Florida, USA, as IRCC accepts
- Roxo is a Corporate Member of the American Translators Association (ATA)

## Do you need a translator certified in Quebec?

- For IRCC, no. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada accepts a translation by a member of a professional association in Canada or abroad, or a translation with the translator’s affidavit sworn before a notary public outside Canada, with a certified copy of the original. It does not ask for a translator in Longueuil.
- Longueuil has no university translation program of its own. The closest are in Montreal, across the St. Lawrence: the Baccalauréat spécialisé en traduction of the Université de Montréal, Concordia University’s BA Specialization in Translation and MA in Translation Studies, and McGill University’s programs, all recognized by OTTIAQ, which has its office in Montreal.
- Some offices in the city ask for more, such as the marriage licence and some courts. Roxo is not a member of OTTIAQ or of any Canadian association: our credential is membership of the American Translators Association (ATA). If an office asks for an OTTIAQ-certified translator, check with them before you order.

## Notaries and affidavits in Longueuil

- In Quebec, the notaire is a civil law jurist and a public officer who drafts authentic acts, a different role from the notary public of the rest of Canada and the United States. An affidavit is sworn before a commissioner for oaths (commissaire à l’assermentation), appointed by the Minister of Justice, or before a lawyer, a notaire or a court clerk. A commissioner cannot certify that a copy is true to the original.
- IRCC asks for the affidavit to be sworn before a notary public outside Canada when the translator is not certified in Canada. Ours is sworn before a notary public in Florida, USA, at no extra cost (see notarized translation). If an office in Longueuil asks for a Quebec notary (notaire), check with them before you order.

## How to choose a certified translator in Longueuil

- Whether the translator works in Longueuil or online, check that:

- The office that receives the document accepts that kind of translator: OTTIAQ member, or translator with an affidavit
- The translation is complete, with the translator’s name and signature, and the affidavit sworn before a notary
- The translator is native in the target language and a second person reviews the translation
- You can see the price and the delivery date before you pay, and nobody in your family translates the documents
