Who needs a translator in Atlanta

Atlanta has a small non-English-speaking population by national standards: 14,020 residents, or 3%, speak English less than very well. Requests from here tend to be individual immigration or academic files rather than volume work, and they are usually concentrated in a handful of languages.

The largest group is Spanish, with 21,455 speakers. It is not the whole picture: 4 separate language groups in Atlanta have a limited-English population in the thousands.

Getting a document certified from Atlanta

You can hand documents over at our Atlanta office, but you do not need to. Upload the file and we return a PDF you can print, with the certification carrying the same weight either way.

What a certified translation has to contain, what USCIS accepts, and what it costs are the same everywhere, so they are covered once on the pages that own them rather than repeated here:

• How certified translation works, including the wording USCIS requires
• Birth certificates, the most common document in an immigration file
• Marriage certificates and divorce decrees
• Diplomas and transcripts for credential evaluation
• Apostilles, a separate step that is often mistaken for certification

The USCIS office in Atlanta

Application Support Center - Atlanta, GA is at USCIS Application Support Center, 3358B Chamblee Tucker Road, Atlanta, GA 30341.

An Application Support Center handles biometrics, not interviews. Translations are filed with your paperwork either way. Address from USCIS; check your own appointment notice before travelling.

Apostilles for Georgia documents

For documents issued in Georgia, the competent authority is Georgia Superior Courts Clerks' Cooperative Authority. Not us: an apostille authenticates the original document, while certification covers the translation. How the two fit together.

Authority per the Hague Conference registry, which is not the Secretary of State in every state.
