Why Staten Island Residents Need Certified Translations
Staten Island is one of the most linguistically diverse cities in the United States. According to the US Census, over 35% of Staten Island residents speak a language other than English at home, with Spanish, Polish, Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese), and Arabic among the most common. This diversity creates constant demand for official translation services – for immigration applications filed at the Staten Island USCIS Field Office, proceedings at the Richmond County Circuit Court, university admissions at UStaten Island, Northwestern, UIC, and DePaul, and employment documentation across every industry.
Official Translations provides USCIS-accepted certified translations for individuals, law firms, immigration attorneys, universities, and employers throughout Staten Island and Richmond County. Every translation is completed by a professional translator and accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy – the format required by USCIS and all official US institutions. Whether you are filing at the Staten Island USCIS Field Office at 101 W Congress Parkway, submitting to the Richmond County Circuit Court, or applying to the University of New York at Staten Island, our translations meet every institutional standard.
