Why Louisville Residents Need Certified Translations
Louisville is a growing hub of language diversity in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Roughly 9% of Louisville residents were born outside the United States, and Louisville is Kentucky's largest refugee resettlement city, where Kentucky Refugee Ministries and Catholic Charities of Louisville operate the state's primary resettlement offices, serving sizeable Cuban, Bosnian, Burmese/Karen, Somali, Congolese, and Nepali/Bhutanese communities. The most commonly requested translation languages in the city are Spanish, Somali and Arabic – driven by immigration filings, Jefferson County courts, admissions at University of Louisville, and employment documentation for major Louisville employers.
Official Translations provides USCIS-accepted certified translations for individuals, law firms, immigration attorneys, universities and employers throughout Louisville and Jefferson County. Every translation is completed by a professional translator and accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy – the format required by USCIS under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), by the U.S. District Court, Western District of Kentucky, by Jefferson County Circuit Court, and by University of Louisville, Bellarmine University, Spalding University. Whether you are filing at the USCIS Louisville Field Office, submitting to a Jefferson County court, or applying to a Louisville-area university, our translations meet every institutional standard.
