TRANSLATION QUESTION

[JRPW]

Hello.

Jeff again.

Quick question - Do you think it will be OK if I do the translation of my pay stubs myself? I have worked as a translator for over six years. I got my wife's Japanese family registry translated by someone else. I really do not want to pay for a job that I can do.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks!

I think it should be fine. The more official documents are the ones that they require a certified translation.

check the guide carefully! go to guide on CIC, and Ctrl+ F for "translate"

it is written that documents cannot be translated by family members sorry

My wife translated our company ID cards and also our ID cards for our apartment. No problem. Like I said, official documents are the ones that need to have a certified translation, but I guess it also depends on your visa office. HK seems cool...

Fencesitter,

Thanks for the reply. I thought I could do the translations myself - at least the one's that do not need to be certified.

Thanks for the info!

Cheers!
