Marriage Certificate Translation

[*New* Mrs. G]

This is all quite interesting... I called my Ministry of Vital Statistics yesterday and they said for me to use a notarized translated copy & the original to change my name. I'm from BC so it's obviously different than Ontario. Once I get it done I'll update this thread.

Here's a helpful website that I posted in another thread:

 

Society of Translators and Interpreters of British Columbia

 

They have links to translators in other provinces, the USA & elsewhere.

As an update, I have been speaking to the Dominican consulate in the States (MIA and DC), and apparently, as of 9/1/09, the Consulate's translation of these documents is no longer legal. According to the Consulate, the DR is now part of the HAC Convention, so their translations are no longer accepted.

 

I passed this information on to my onsite coordinator, who of course, this was news too, but I called the Consulate back and spoke to the person who actually does the translations. I am obviously still going to have them done anyway, but this has been very confusing!!! Ugh!
