Questions about support letters and others

[rossal-]

Hi everyone! i'm new here in the forum, i will send my papers very soon, we have almost all done but now we have a question, my language is not english or french so i translated all my papers, but my family doesn't speak any of both language so my support letters from my family are in spanish, and we translate all to french (we are in quebec), we can do that or these traslations need to be made for a qualify traslator (like my papers)??? (we are sending both, in spanish and one translation made for ourself) is tooo expensive to pay for all of them and we don't have that money, is just my husband who work and is not so easy to get extra money... also we are sending an open work permit to be opened when is approved the first stage, i need to put in the same envelope than the sponsorship application? the receipt could be just one for both? or one each? we are also sending my extension and we will put in another envelope with another receipt with the extension fees.. is that correct?
I will appreciate for all you help!! thanks in advance!!
We are apply inland*

As per guide 5289 :


Translation of documents

Any document that is not in English or French must be accompanied by:

the English or French translation; and
an affidavit from the person who completed the translation; and
a certified copy of the original document.

Note: An affidavit is a document on which the translator has sworn, in the presence of a commissioner authorized to administer oaths in the country in which the translator is living, that the contents of their translation are a true translation and representation of the contents of the original document. Translators who are certified members in good standing of one of the provincial or territorial organizations of translators and interpreters of Canada do not need to supply an affidavit.

Important information. Translations by family members are not acceptable.


You should get receipts separately for different category.
