RFE objection "no certified translation": how it was answered
Key answer
The officer noted that the filing did not include proper certified translations of the submitted documents. Provide full certified translations for all non-English documents and connect them to the originals.
The objection belongs to the "High remuneration" criterion. Below is what the community did to close it: the order of steps, the documents that were attached and the wording that went into the answer.
Steps that closed it
- Prepare a complete translation of all income documents into the language of the country of filing
- Have the translation certified by a sworn translator, notary, or accredited agency - depending on the authority's requirements
- Attach copies of the originals together with the certified translations
- Check that amounts, dates, positions, tax periods, and details match the originals
- Submit an explanation that the prior refusal has been addressed by providing certified translations
What was attached
- income statement
- tax return
- bank account statement
- employment agreement or contract
- payroll records
- translator certificate or certification stamp
How the answer was worded
The ground for refusal has been addressed: documents confirming high income are submitted together with certified translations prepared in the required manner.
A pattern, not a template to copy: the wording only works with your own facts behind it.
