If you also need translations
If you also need Chinese documents translated before your appointment
Certified English translations of Chinese documents come from the same account, delivered as a PDF you can print or upload. These are the ones New York courts, USCIS, clinics and schools ask for.
USCIS interviews
USCIS requires a complete English translation with a signed certification for every Chinese 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 Chinese 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 Chinese; the family brings the previous school’s records.

Chinese · New York FAQ
Answers about Chinese interpreters in New York.
The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.
Can't find it here?
01Do New York courts require a licensed or certified Chinese interpreter?
New York tests court interpreters in writing and orally before listing them on the Unified Court System registry used by every county. Tell us the court when you book and we assign a court interpreter on the UCS registry where the court requires one.
02Can you interpret at my USCIS interview in New York?
Yes. USCIS requires asylum applicants to bring their own interpreter and allows one at adjustment and naturalization interviews. We send Chinese interpreters who have done interviews at the field offices serving New York: New York City, Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island, Buffalo, Albany.
03Do you cover IEP meetings and school districts in New York?
Yes. Chinese interpreters for IEP (special education) meetings, parent-teacher conferences and disciplinary hearings, on-site or by video, in districts across New York.
04Which Chinese dialect do you cover in New York?
Cantonese and Mandarin share written standard Chinese but spoken Cantonese uses distinct vocabulary and grammar. Booking a Mandarin interpreter for a Cantonese speaker is a common client error we help correct up front.
05Do you support rural and non-metro New York?
Yes. We cover every county in New York. On-site reach is deepest in major metros; rural bookings are filled with VRI or by travel, with mileage quoted up front at booking.

Yes. Clinical VRI sessions run on a HIPAA-aligned platform with BAA on file, encrypted media, audit logs and no retained session recordings.
