Yellowknife

## Certified Translator in Yellowknife

- A certified translator in Yellowknife is a member of a translators’ association from another province: the Northwest Territories has no association of its own among the provincial associations of CTTIC, the national council. 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 Yellowknife, 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 Northwest Territories?

- 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 Yellowknife.
- We found no translation programme in Yellowknife: Aurora College, which has its North Slave campus in the city, no longer offers the interpreter and translator diploma it once had. The Northwest Territories have no translators’ association of their own.
- Some offices in the city ask for more, such as the marriage licence and some courts. Roxo is not a member of any Canadian association: our credential is membership of the American Translators Association (ATA). If an office asks for a translator certified in Canada, check with them before you order.

## Notaries and affidavits in Yellowknife

- In the Northwest Territories, the Minister of Justice appoints notaries public under the Evidence Act, for three-year terms, from residents of the territory who are Canadian citizens or permanent residents and pass an exam; a notary can certify true copies. The Minister also appoints commissioners for oaths, who can take oaths within the territory but cannot certify copies.
- 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 Yellowknife asks for a Northwest Territories notary, check with them before you order.

## How to choose a certified translator in Yellowknife

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

- The office that receives the document accepts that kind of translator: member of a Canadian association, 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
