Hopefully you either got lucky or will get a vo on a good day. All required documents either have to be originals if stipulated or certified translated copies. CIC's definition of certified includes notarizing. Any additional documents you send are at your discretion as to what you do in relation to translation and notarization. Having said that this process seems very inconsistent. We decided to follow the above direction.NLman83 said:Hi All,
I will share what we did for my fiancee, any document which was not in English (this being in Dutch/ Polish) did not require a notarization, it required that it was translated into English via a sworn translator. The only documents that needed to be translated was the Polish Criminal Record Check and this was done by a sworn translator who provided his stamp etc. Likewise, our mortgage and income tax records from the Netherlands were translated into English via Dutch sworn translator. Nothing went through a notary. This is our experience from the last 2-3 months when all these were done. Hope this helps.
Thanks
