If you also need translations
If you also need Afrikaans documents translated before your appointment
Certified English translations of Afrikaans documents come from the same account, delivered as a PDF you can print or upload. These are the ones Illinois courts, USCIS, clinics and schools ask for.
USCIS interviews
USCIS requires a complete English translation with a signed certification for every Afrikaans document in the file, and the officer can ask to see the originals at the interview.
Courts and depositions
The interpreter voices testimony. Contracts, sworn statements, prior transcripts and messages in Afrikaans come in as certified translations the court can file.
Hospitals and clinics
Immunization records, prescriptions and discharge summaries from abroad go into the chart in English; the same translations serve school enrollment and insurance claims.
Schools and universities
Enrollment, placement and admissions run on transcripts and diplomas in English. The district handles its own notices in Afrikaans; the family brings the previous school’s records.
