As of October 19, 2026, ImmiTranslate’s own certified translation page lists $25 per page of up to 250 words with standard turnaround from 24 hours, and its pricing page lists notarization ($20 per order), a mailed physical copy ($35 per order) and an apostille ($180 per document) as paid options. Corpus charges $19.99 per page for eligible standard documents and does not offer notarization, apostille or mailed copies. A birth, marriage, divorce, academic, or police record of up to 4 pages is delivered within 24 hours of order confirmation on business days, or that document is free. Other files get a quote review.
Order: clear standard files. Quote: uncertain count, unclear scan, backs, or instructions.
Compare certification wording, page-count rules, price, turnaround, file review, and recipient fit before choosing an ImmiTranslate alternative.
Most people searching for ImmiTranslate are not doing abstract vendor research. They have a birth certificate, marriage certificate, police certificate, passport page, diploma, transcript, or civil record that needs to be translated for a real deadline. If you already know the document type, start with birth certificate translation, USCIS translation services, or pricing; if the upload is unclear, use quote review before payment. The comparison should answer practical questions before payment.
Start with the final deliverable. A certified translation should include the translated document and a signed certification statement. The provider should explain whether the certificate is included, whether stamps and seals are handled, whether back sides count, and whether the buyer should upload every page or side with official text.
Then check the order path. Clear files should be easy to order. Unclear files should not force the buyer to guess. Corpus sends standard, readable documents to direct checkout and sends uncertain files to quote review so the scope can be checked first.
Completeness, certification, readable formatting, price clarity, and recipient instructions matter more than the provider’s brand name.
A provider name does not fix a missing stamp, an unreadable scan, or a certificate that does not match the recipient’s instructions. The translation package has to stand on its own. Names, dates, places, registry numbers, seals, stamps, handwritten entries, and official notes should be translated or handled clearly when they are part of the source document.
For USCIS purposes, the question is whether the translation meets the translation requirements of 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3): a complete English translation and a certification from the translator that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate.
Corpus provides certified document translation for USCIS-purpose submissions, courts, schools, employers, evaluators, and other official recipients. Corpus does not provide legal advice, immigration filing help, apostille handling, credential evaluation, or immigration outcome promises.
Buyers should compare the total pages or sides needing translation, the price, and whether the file is simple enough for checkout.
Eligible standard documents are $19.99 per page. A birth, marriage, divorce, academic, or police record of up to 4 pages is delivered within 24 hours of order confirmation on business days, or that document is free. A passport gets a quote review.
Page count becomes less obvious when a file has back sides, stamps, seals, handwritten notes, attachments, several records in one image, or a set of related documents. A back side with official text or stamps may need translation. A cropped photo may hide information the translator needs. A faded record may need review before anyone can confirm the scope.
The listed price matters, but the routing matters too. A low checkout price is not useful if the buyer has to guess what counts. For a deeper price explanation, see Certified Translation Cost for USCIS and Pricing.
A USCIS-purpose certified translation should include a full English translation and a signed certification of completeness, accuracy, and translator competence.
The certificate should identify the translation and state that it is complete and accurate. It should also state that the translator is competent to translate from the source language into English. That certificate wording matters more than a marketing label.
Corpus certified translations include a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy. 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) does not name or approve any translation provider; it sets what the translation and the certification must contain.
Some recipients ask for notarization or other handling, but certified translation and notarization are not the same thing. Corpus does not provide notarization; if a recipient asks for it, use a provider that does. For other special instructions, request a quote before ordering. Read Certified vs Notarized Translation before paying for the wrong service type.
Corpus checkout is a fit when the document is readable, complete, standard, and easy to count.
Use Start Your Order for a clear document with a known page count. Good direct-checkout candidates are birth, marriage, divorce, academic and police records of up to 4 pages that are readable from edge to edge. A passport, national ID or other document type gets a quote review.
Upload the complete file. If the back side has stamps, seals, notes, or official text, include it. If the document has no back-side information, still make sure the front side is not cropped or blurry. The translator needs names, dates, places, registration numbers, official marks, and handwritten entries to be readable.
Direct checkout works best when the buyer knows exactly what needs translation. It also works best when the recipient has not asked for special formatting or document-specific handling. Corpus does not provide notarization, mailed copies or credential evaluation. Corpus can move faster when the source file and scope are clear at the start.
Quote review is safer when page count, file quality, document scope, or recipient instructions are unclear.
Use Get a Quote for immigration document sets, school records, court records, several certificates in one upload, old records, handwriting, faded scans, cropped photos, dark images, folded papers, mixed languages, or files with stamps and seals on the back.
Quote review is also safer when an attorney, school, court, employer, evaluator, or agency has written instructions that affect the translation. Special instructions can change the format, included pages, delivery path, or review needs. The safest time to catch that is before payment.
For many buyers, this is the real alternative-provider question. The provider should not push every file through the same checkout path. Simple files should move quickly. Complicated files should be checked first.

No. USCIS requires a complete English translation with a proper translator certification, not a specific private translation company.
USCIS-purpose translation buyers should focus on the translation package, not the brand name alone. The English translation must be complete and accurate, and the translator certification must state that the translator is competent to translate. If an attorney gives extra instructions, follow those instructions.
