Every Green Card Application Needs Translation

Whether you’re applying for a green card through family sponsorship, employment, the diversity lottery, or another pathway — if any of your supporting documents are in a language other than English, USCIS requires certified English translations.

This isn’t optional. It’s federal law under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). Submit untranslated documents and your application stalls. Submit poorly translated documents and you risk a Request for Evidence (RFE) that adds 30-90 days to your timeline.

Corpus Localization translates supporting documents for green card applications starting at $19.99/page for eligible standard certified documents, with 24-hour delivery for many clear files. We help applicants prepare complete English translations with a signed Certificate of Accuracy.

Family-Based Green Cards (I-130 + I-485)

The most common pathway. You’ll typically need translations of:

  • Birth certificates — yours and your petitioner’s (to prove the family relationship)

  • Divorce decrees — if either party was previously married
  • Police clearance certificates — from every country you’ve lived in for 6+ months since age 16
  • Adoption documents — if applicable
  • Financial documents — foreign bank statements or tax returns for I-864 Affidavit of Support

Typical cost: 4-8 documents, $79.96-$159.92

Employment-Based Green Cards (EB-1, EB-2, EB-3)

Employment-based applicants need translations of:

  • Academic transcripts and diplomas — proving educational qualifications
  • Professional licenses and certifications — demonstrating specialized knowledge

  • Birth certificate — proving country of birth
  • High school diploma or equivalent — proving educational requirement
  • Police clearances — from each country of residence
  • Marriage and family documents — for derivative applicants

Typical cost: 3-5 documents, $19.99-$19.99

Translation Timeline for Green Card Applications

Start early. Don’t wait until your filing date to order translations. Get documents translated as soon as you have them.

Concurrent filing (I-130 + I-485). If you’re filing both forms simultaneously, get all documents translated at once. We can process multiple documents in parallel.

RFE response. If USCIS issues an RFE requesting additional translated documents, our 24-hour turnaround lets you respond quickly without missing the RFE deadline (typically 87 days).

Interview preparation. If your green card requires an interview, bring the original foreign-language documents AND the certified translations. USCIS officers may review both.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every foreign-language document you submit to USCIS must be accompanied by a certified English translation. If a document is already in English, no translation is needed.

USCIS recommends professional translation. The translator should not be the applicant, petitioner, or a family member. Professional translation from an ATA corporate member significantly reduces RFE risk.

You can reuse translations from your I-130 filing. If USCIS needs additional documents for the I-485, translate only the new documents.

24 hours from approval of your quote. For multiple documents, we translate in parallel — 5 documents still takes 24 hours, not 5 days.

Contact us immediately. We offer same-day delivery for urgent situations. A single birth certificate can be translated in hours.
