Hundreds of certified translators, and no easy way to choose
Across Canada, provincial associations such as ATIA (Association of Translators and Interpreters of Alberta) list hundreds of certified translators. A directory shows names and language pairs. It does not show who is available this week, what they charge, or how quickly they answer. For a newcomer with an IRCC deadline, that guesswork costs time.
What happens when you contact translators yourself
In our experience, about half of the messages sent to individual translators never get an answer, or get one days later. Some translators are on vacation or fully booked. Others quote far above the usual rate for a one-page certificate, or accept only a bank wire, a cheque or cash. Every new attempt means sending your documents again and waiting again.
Why we already know who to call
We place translations every day, in dozens of language pairs, for clients in Calgary, Edmonton and across Alberta. Over time we have learned which certified translators reply quickly, deliver clean work that IRCC and provincial offices accept, and keep their deadlines. Because we send them steady work, they give us better rates and priority turnaround, and we pass that on to you.
