Chicago is the largest USCIS jurisdiction in the Midwest, with substantial Mexican, Polish, Indian, Filipino, and Eastern European populations all filing family-based and employment-based cases.

We translate documents from every major language present in the Chicago metro, delivered the next business day to applicants from anywhere in Cook, DuPage, Lake, or Will counties.

The Chicago immigrant community we serve

Chicago has the largest Polish-American population in the country, the third-largest Mexican-origin community, and substantial Indian (especially in Naperville and Schaumburg), Filipino, and Bosnian populations. Polish civil records — including the Krajowy Rejestr Sądowy (court records) and parish baptismal records used for older Polish births — come up regularly.

What USCIS expects from your Chicago translation

  • Full English translation

    Every word, stamp, seal, and marginal note on the foreign document must be rendered into English — not summarized.

  • Signed Certificate of Accuracy

    The translator certifies, in writing, that the translation is complete and accurate and that they are competent to translate from the source language to English.

  • Original visible alongside translation

    USCIS expects the certified English translation to be submitted together with a legible copy of the original foreign-language document.

  • Independent translator

    The translator cannot be the applicant or beneficiary. Self-translations are routinely rejected, even when accurate.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. For older Polish births that predate civil registration in some regions, parish records are accepted by USCIS when translated — and we have native Polish translators familiar with archaic ecclesiastical Polish.
