Every translation includes
A translation laid out like the original (.docx + .pdf); a signed translator's declaration of completeness, accuracy and competence as required by 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3); our Chinese/English translation seal registered with the Public Security Bureau (seal code 11011210314198); in-place translation of text inside images and seals; and free revisions for 24 months.
Common mistakes that trigger an RFE or rejection
Guessing at illegible handwriting
A wrong guess in a medical record is worse than a clear [illegible] note; certified translations must not add content.
Lay paraphrase instead of medical terms
Use the recognized English term for each diagnosis so a doctor or officer can rely on it.
