Hey guys I have a question regarding translation of documents from Spanish to English.

Will the IRCC accept translations of the documents from outside of Canada by a certified translated there? E.G: Mexico?

It will cost me a fortune to translate the papers inside Canada, since the prices are very high!

If they will accept the translation by a certified translator from outside of Canada, DO WE HAVE TO PROVIDE THE ORIGINAL TRANSLATED COPY OF THE DOCUMENT OR WE CAN SEND THEM A PHOTOCOPY OF THE ORIGINAL TRANSLATED COPY OF THE DOCUMENT?

If we can send them a photocopy of the original translated copy of the documents then I wouldn't need to ship it to Canada rather I would just ask the translator to send me an electronic version of the translated document and I will print it here. Is this possible?


Please if someone knowledgeable can reply me soon for clarification.

Thanks
 
I'm not sure about using a foreign translator. But I have found Docsbase Canada to have affordable, quality service.

picked below from the basic guide - IMM 5525 which is self explanatory:
you must attach the following for any documents that are not in English or French:
  • a certified copy of the original document; and
  • the English or French translation; and
  • an affidavit from the person who completed the translation.

I translated my documents in Venezuela and I had no problem, you must send a certified copy of the document, an affidavit meaning that it is an exact translation and the translator's data bla bla bla... And finally the translation, in that order you must place it.

Same response as in other thread. You need to check locally. Translations and certified copies in some countries require an official Govt stamp or other step. Ircc also puts country specific requirements in some cases.
