Well translation of chat is absurd and insane from CIC. Personally I would never go to that level of proving my relationship , regardless of the outcome!
I agree with you. I don't want to either. sending screenshot with file was enough. translating all the chat is too much.
It would actually be the second line, if it's there at all (it bumps other stuff down when it appears). Either way, I hope you hear something soon! Waiting for the transfer was one of the parts that made me most impatient!
Starting March 2019 there was a change in the checklist, and now even with the original applications all the communications (not only facebook chats, but also emails, postcards, etc) have to be translated by a certified translator. It's not your case because you've applied before, but it's a case for all new applicants.
I completely agree and it's just more money being wasted. I my case, me and my husband communicate In Spanish with strong slang used. most of the time especially on my husband's side, we did not use very good grammar
so the translators had a real tough time with the task and even admitted it. When I was reading their translations, I was appalled of how off they were with 10 pages of chats. If my application ends up going to Mexico VO then they are Spanish and will be able to see what was translated versus what was actually in the chats.Thanks for the update. Wow! That is going to get extremely costly for people. The first translator we had charged us $100 per PAGE + expedited shipping. The translations alone cost us over $700 with our initial application.
Probability wise, there is a chance. But why bother with something you cannot control?
Pretty sure there's actually no chance -- Sydney doesn't process any of them to the end.
