Certified Translation of Divorce Decree to English for USCIS (2026): Remarriage, Green Card, and RFE-Proof Filing Guide

If your case includes a prior marriage, a certified translation of your divorce decree can determine whether USCIS accepts your filing or issues an RFE. This guide explains the governing rule in 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), what I-130, I-129F, and N-400 cases usually require, and how to choose the correct divorce record (decree, certificate, or registry entry). You will get a practical compliance checklist, five high-risk mistakes with real consequences, and a clear 3-step online workflow. We also cover the counter-intuitive point most applicants miss: notarization does not replace a proper translation certification.
