Hi everyone,

I received ITA on 10th Feb and have time until 9th April to submit my application. I'm struggling with the translation of my passport stamps. Few of the stamps and visa are in languages other than english and french and hence translation is required.

The problem is that the text on many of the stamps is blurred and completely unreadable. I read somewhere that in place of such text on the translation document the translator can write 'illegible text'. Can anyone pls confirm if this is allowed by CIC or is there any other way around this problem too.
I've reached out to multiple translators and none of them seem to be able to read it.

Thanks
Divdiv

You do not need a translation for passport stamps! Where did you get that idea?!?

Also, you do not even need to include the visa pages of your passport. The biodata page is sufficient.
