Corpus Localization translates employment records into English for USCIS purposes. Send the complete letter, contract or record and your recipient's instructions for a custom quote before payment. Translation preserves what the source says; it does not verify employment, assess eligibility or decide which evidence belongs in an I-140 or I-485 filing.

Which employment records can I send?
You can submit employer letters, employment contracts, job descriptions, pay records and related employment documents for quote review. These are examples of translation inputs, not a list of records everyone must submit.
An employer letter may combine dates of service, a position title and a signature. A contract may include schedules or amendments. A pay record may rely on column headings and abbreviations to explain its amounts. Send each document in full, with any included attachments, so those details can be read together.
This service covers the supplied employment record. For the broader filing context, see I-140 document translation or the I-485 translation checklist. Degrees and transcripts belong with academic translation; including them beside an employment letter does not turn the whole package into standard academic-record work.
Prepare your employment records for review
- Keep the letterhead and employer name visible. Do not crop the header, footer or contact details away from a letter.
- Include signatures, stamps and every text-bearing page. Capture the reverse if it contains wording. Send contract attachments that are part of the material you want translated.
- Check dates and job-title fields. Make sure the digits, punctuation and surrounding labels are readable. Flag unclear date formats rather than rewriting them yourself.
- Preserve tables. Pay periods, column headings, salary amounts, deductions and currency labels need to remain visible together. Avoid a screenshot that cuts off the left-hand labels or final column.
- Identify handwriting and mixed languages. Point out faint notes, abbreviations or a stamp in another language for review.
- Separate records clearly. Use descriptive filenames and indicate the intended page order. Include recipient instructions and any reference spelling for a person's or employer's name.
Do not alter source dates, job titles or amounts to make the documents look consistent. If records disagree, identify the difference in your quote request.
How are job titles, dates and salary amounts translated?
The translation follows the source wording. A job title is not upgraded to a more senior role, and a description of duties is not rewritten to fit a petition category. Translation does not provide a U.S. credential equivalence or an evaluation of professional experience.
Dates stay tied to their labels: a letter's issue date is not the same as an employment start date. If the source date is ambiguous, that ambiguity needs review rather than an unsupported assumption.
Salary figures remain connected to their currency and stated period. Translating a monthly amount does not mean calculating an annual salary or converting it into U.S. dollars. Table headings and notes matter because they explain what each figure represents. This is document translation, not financial analysis.
Languages and custom pricing
Request employment-record translation from Spanish, Georgian, Kazakh, Thai or Nepali into English. Other languages are welcome. A custom quote confirms availability, price and requirements for your language pair.
Employment records are quoted after file review, before payment. Dense tables, handwritten entries, contract attachments and mixed-language content need to be considered as part of the scope. We do not apply a blanket standard-document page price to an employment-record package. Send the complete material rather than estimating the price from the number of screenshots alone.
What you receive—and who submits it
Your order includes a full English translation of the supplied records, a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, and PDF plus editable DOCX files by email. The layout follows the original so the translated headings, entries and tables can be compared with the source.
Corpus Localization prepares complete, faithful English translations of official documents. Every translation passes quality checks for completeness and accuracy before delivery, and every order is certified by Corpus Localization LLC with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy. Corpus Localization is an ATA corporate member (#M-189351).
You or your attorney submit the documents. Corpus translates; we do not file the petition or contact an employer to authenticate the record. Firms coordinating client files can see translation for immigration attorneys.
Frequently asked questions
Does a translated employer letter verify my employment?
No. Translation conveys the contents of the supplied letter. It does not authenticate the employer, confirm that the letter is genuine or independently verify the employment history.
Can you tell me which records my I-140 or I-485 needs?
We can review the files you want translated, but evidence selection and eligibility are filing questions. Consult the relevant instructions or your attorney; this page does not prescribe a document package.
Should I include the contract's attachments?
Include attachments that form part of the contract you are submitting for translation. Identify them in the quote request so they are not mistaken for separate, unrelated files. Do not omit text-bearing pages merely because the signature is on another page.
Can a hard-to-read handwritten entry be translated?
Send the clearest available copy for review. If wording cannot be read, it must not be invented. A clearer source may be needed to settle the scope.
