Do I need the full divorce decree translated or only part of it?

Why the full divorce decree is usually needed

For USCIS, the full document you submit must be translated. USCIS asks for a complete English translation of any foreign-language document, so a summary or a translation of only the first page can be rejected.

Divorce decrees and court judgments can be long. Which document you need to submit (a divorce certificate, a final decree or a court judgment) depends on your form and situation; that choice is yours or your attorney’s. Once you know, we translate every page of it. See our divorce certificate translation page.

How to send a long divorce decree

1. Check the form instructions, or ask your attorney, which divorce document to submit.
2. Scan every page of that document, including stamps and annotations.
3. Upload it; you see the price ($20 per page) before you pay.
