Please be informed and add in your info. If the sponsor is trying to link the applicants file into his/her account, make sure he/she is in the applicants use of representative, or else it wouldn't work. I went through with this with an IRCC Agent. Cheers

All june applicants, did you all certified translated your personal chats and social media proofs?
I will file by mid to end of june, just confused with translation documents requirement!

I sent in all the chats which were in english. I'd suggest doing that or getting it translated. But maybe other people can comment more.

As of today, the latest checklist requires you to send ‘certified translations of all chats and social media if not in English or French’. Need to attach the following documents with your file.

• a certified copy of the original document; and
• the English or French translation; and
• an affidavit from the person who completed the translation.

Thank you ! And if I am getting it translated from Canada, do I still need affidavit?
Thanks

I have one more question, please let me know, I have social media pictures, where I posted pictures on facebook and instagram, and my friends commented on that, most of them are in english, and some in my native language. I believe, we don’t have to translate that
And I have 21 pages of personal chat to get translated and they are charging me $422, shd I cut it down to 10? Will those 10 pages be enough for officials? And I can submit rest of my chat as it is, without having it translated.
Thanks much!!

i made sure to only put 10 as they requested but i was able to add a few chats to one page, i think as long as they see communication it’s enough! if they want more they will ask and i wouldn’t worry about those translations if they’re just friends comments
