Do you need a translator based in Columbus?

No. USCIS asks for a full English translation with a certification from the translator stating that they are competent to translate and that the translation is accurate (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)). It does not ask for a translator in Columbus or anywhere in Ohio, and it does not approve or list translators.

If you live in Columbus, your USCIS appointments are usually at the Columbus Field Office, at 395 E. Broad Street, Suite 100, Columbus, OH 43215. Your appointment notice confirms the address.

In Columbus, 19.1% of residents speak a language other than English at home, according to the Census Bureau, and the city is home to the consulate of Guatemala.

When an office in Columbus asks for notarization

In Ohio, notaries public are commissioned by the Secretary of State for five-year terms. USCIS does not ask for notarization, but some offices, schools and foreign agencies do.

Our certificate of accuracy is notarized by a Florida notary public at no extra cost, and a Florida notarization is recognized in Ohio and across the United States. Certifying a translation is not a duty of a Florida notary: the notary notarizes the signature of the translator on the statement that the translation is accurate.

Do I need a certified translator from my city in the United States?

No. USCIS asks for a full English translation with the translator’s signed statement that they are competent to translate and that the translation is accurate (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)). It does not ask for a translator in your city or state, and it does not approve or list translators. A certified translation done online, with the certificate of accuracy notarized in Florida, is accepted in any state. Order your translation online.

Does USCIS accept your translations?

Yes. USCIS accepts certified translations, and ours include the signed certificate of accuracy and US notarization. Every foreign-language document you file must come with a full English translation. Final acceptance of any application is always decided by USCIS.

Does USCIS require a notarized translation?

No. USCIS asks for a certified translation, meaning the translator’s signed statement of accuracy and competence; notarization is not required. Ours includes US notarization anyway, because some schools, courts and other agencies do ask for it, so the same translation works in more places.

Is a Florida notarization accepted in other states?

Yes, a notarization performed in Florida is recognized across the United States. If a specific institution asks for a notary from its own state, tell us before ordering so we can check the options.

Do you translate driver's licenses for the DMV?

Yes. Certified driver's license translation starts at $25 per application, with 1-day delivery. Tell us the country and, if it is the US, the state: most DMVs accept it, but a few, such as Connecticut, New York, Nevada and Georgia, have their own rules. To check your state, see the order page.

Can I translate my own documents for USCIS?

USCIS requires every foreign-language document to come with a full English translation and a certification from the translator that it is complete and accurate and that they are competent to translate (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)). Translating your own document, or asking a relative, invites questions about impartiality, so an independent professional translator is the safer choice.
