Markham

## Certified Translator in Markham

- A certified translator in Markham is, by Ontario law, a translator certified by ATIO. 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 Markham, 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 Ontario?

- 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 Markham.
- Translators in the Toronto area train at the Glendon School of Translation, at York University in Toronto, which runs an MA in Translation Studies and a Master of Conference Interpreting. ATIO, the association that certifies translators in Ontario, was founded in Ottawa in 1920.
- Some offices in the city ask for more, such as the marriage licence and some courts. Roxo is not a member of ATIO or of any Canadian association: our credential is membership of the American Translators Association (ATA). If an office asks for an ATIO-certified translator, check with them before you order.

## Notaries and affidavits in Markham

- In Ontario, licensed lawyers and paralegals can be appointed notaries public by the Ministry of the Attorney General, and they are commissioners for taking affidavits automatically. A notary certifies copies and signatures; a commissioner takes affidavits.
- 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 Markham asks for an Ontario notary, check with them before you order.

## How to choose a certified translator in Markham

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

- The office that receives the document accepts that kind of translator: ATIO 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
