Getting Dari right
We interpret Dari for SIV applications, parole case reviews, resettlement agency intake, medical appointments and K-12 parent meetings for recently arrived Afghan families.
Typical Dari bookings

- Resettlement agency intake
- Medical and behavioral-health appointments (PTSD)
- Women's-health and maternity appointments

- U.S. speakers
- 150k+
- Booked most in
- Sacramento, Northern Virginia, Houston
- Varieties
- Dari, Farsi and Tajik are mutually intelligible but clients sometimes request the wrong variety. Afghan speakers almost always require Dari (or Pashto).
- Register
- Gender matching matters for many Afghan clients — we staff female interpreters for women's-health appointments and women-only domestic-violence matters by default and without asking clients to justify.
Exams we interpret
Video interpreters for independent medical examinations, from history interviews to telemedicine exams
Our video interpreters join the three kinds of sessions below for an independent medical examination.
History interviews
The examiner asks about the injury, the treatment so far and the claimant's work and daily life. The interpreter interprets each question and each answer, so the examiner hears the history in the claimant's own words.
Telemedicine exams
When the examiner does the exam over video, the claimant is asked to move or to describe a symptom. The interpreter interprets those instructions and the claimant's replies.
Psychological examinations
A psychologist interviews the claimant by video about symptoms, history and daily life. The interpreter interprets the answers as they are given.
Remote exams
What to know about remote independent medical examinations with an interpreter
When video is used
The doctor has to examine the claimant for the physical part, so those exams are done in person. The examiner may hold the history interview, a psychological exam or a follow-up by video, and the examiner decides what can be done remotely. Video is also chosen when no interpreter for the claimant's language works near the examiner's office, since a video interpreter can join from anywhere in the US.
Who takes part
The doctor who examines the claimant is chosen by the insurer or the defense side, and directs the exam on the call. The claimant answers the questions and follows the doctor's instructions. The claimant's attorney or another observer may attend where the rules allow it. The interpreter is on the same call, so the doctor and the claimant understand each other.

The interpreter's role
The interpreter helps the doctor and the claimant understand each other as clearly as if they spoke one language. The history and each instruction, such as asking the claimant to raise an arm or point to where it hurts, are interpreted, and the claimant's answers go back to the doctor in the first person. The interpreter works for neither the insurer nor the claimant, keeps what they hear confidential, and does not comment on the exam.

Link and notes
Add the examiner's link to the booking as soon as you have it, or use the Texliff room link we create. Send the same link and the start time to the claimant, who joins from their own location. Notes with the claim number, the injury and the names of the treating doctors let the interpreter prepare the terms.
On-site, video or phone
Choosing between video, on-site and phone for an independent medical examination
The doctor has to examine the claimant, so many exams happen in person. Video and phone suit the parts that do not need the doctor in the room.
On-site
Book an interpreter in person for a physical exam in the examiner's office, where the claimant moves and the doctor examines.
On-Site Interpretation for Independent Medical ExaminationsVideo (VRI)
Video fits history interviews, psychological examinations and follow-ups that the examiner agrees to hold remotely.
Phone (OPI)
A short history call or a scheduling call can go by phone if the examiner does not need to see the claimant.

Questions about video interpreters for independent medical examinations
The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.
Can't find it here?
01Can the interpreter join the examiner's video platform?
Yes. Add the link the examiner or the insurer sent, and the interpreter joins as a guest. Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet all work, and the Texliff room opens in a browser with no install.
02Is the exam recorded or shared?
We do not record sessions unless you ask, an NDA applies to every session, and connections are encrypted. Whether the examiner records the exam is the examiner's decision.
03Can we ask for the same interpreter at a follow-up exam?
You can ask for it in the booking notes. A booking is for the service, not for a particular interpreter, so we take the request into account and assign them when they are available.
04How is a video exam priced?
By the hour, for the hours you book, and the total shows before you pay. Book the time the examiner has set aside, with a little extra, because each question and answer is repeated in the other language.
05How far ahead should we book?
At least 48 to 72 hours ahead, and earlier if you can.
06Which languages can we book for a video exam?
70 languages. Spanish, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Arabic, Korean and Portuguese are the easiest to schedule, and rare languages need more notice.
07Are your Dari interpreters certified?
Yes. Court-certified and medically credentialed Dari interpreters are assigned to legal and clinical matters — Federal Court Interpreter Certification, state court rosters, CCHI / NBCMI for medical. For community, educational and corporate settings we assign professionally trained interpreters matched to the subject.
