How to book an immigration interview interpreter in Miami

  1. Check who provides the interpreter. Immigration courts (EOIR) provide interpreters for hearings. For many USCIS interviews, such as adjustment of status, and naturalization when the applicant is exempt from the English test, applicants who need an interpreter bring their own, and the interpreter signs Form G-1256 at the interview.
  2. Attorneys and families book AMS for the interview itself, for preparation meetings and declarations, and for any document that needs a certified translation.
  3. Call (800) 919-2029 or e-mail scheduling@accessmultilingual.com with the language, the appointment notice date and office. AMS confirms a qualified interpreter in writing, usually within the hour.

Immigration interview interpreters at work in Miami

USCIS has three field offices in Miami-Dade: Miami (8801 NW 7th Avenue), Kendall (14675 SW 120th Street) and Hialeah. The Miami Immigration Court sits at 333 South Miami Avenue, and detained cases are heard at the Krome court on SW 12th Street. The court supplies the hearing interpreter; attorneys book AMS for everything before it.

Haitian Creole is Miami-Dade's most spoken language after English and Spanish, and Haitian applicants and families are a large share of immigration work here. AMS provides Haitian Creole interpreters and certified Haitian Creole translations.

Immigration courts and USCIS

  • Miami Immigration Court, 333 South Miami Avenue, Suite 700
  • Krome Immigration Court (detained), 18201 SW 12th Street
  • USCIS Miami Field Office, 8801 NW 7th Avenue
  • USCIS Kendall Field Office, 14675 SW 120th Street
  • USCIS Hialeah Field Office

Florida's court interpreter program is run by the Florida Supreme Court's Court Interpreter Certification Board with the Office of the State Courts Administrator. Its designations are Certified (the highest), Language Skilled (for languages with no state exam) and Provisionally Approved.

Interpreting at an immigration interview

At a USCIS interview the interpreter takes an oath, interprets every question and answer word for word, and does not help the applicant answer. The interpreter cannot be the applicant's attorney or representative, generally cannot be a witness in the case or under 18, and must be fluent in English and the applicant's language.

Consistency matters. Names, dates and places must match the forms and documents already filed, so preparation meetings with the same interpreter are worth it.

Supporting documents in another language need a complete certified English translation (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)). AMS translates birth, marriage and police records the same day, most within 4 hours.

What we cover

  • Naturalization and adjustment interviews
  • Attorney preparation meetings
