What goes wrong
Chinese (Mandarin)-specific pitfalls in IA.
Chinese (Mandarin) quirks that most commonly derail a Iowa filing or session — caught at intake, not after the RFE arrives.
Simplified vs Traditional mismatch
Mainland readers prefer Simplified; Taiwan / Hong Kong readers prefer Traditional. We confirm target locale (CN, TW, HK, SG) before starting.
Cantonese speakers booked as Mandarin
Older SF Chinatown and Boston Cantonese speakers cannot follow Mandarin spoken. We flip bookings at intake.
Honorific and seniority register
Chinese witness testimony can sound deferential/evasive in English without interpreter notes — our linguists flag register shifts on the record.
Name order (surname first)
Chinese names are Family-name + Given name. We preserve both original Chinese and Western-order English on certified docs.
