مترجم قانوني - التاغالوغية (الفلبينية)

Verdacert provides USCIS-certified translations for immigration, legal, university, and medical documents, with deep specialization in MENA-region languages and native-speaker review on every project. As part of expanding language coverage, we're looking for a Legal Tagalog (Filipino) Translator to review, refine, and certify translations of civil and legal documents between Tagalog/Filipino and English, ensuring accuracy that meets USCIS and court filing standards.

What you'll do

• Review and edit machine-generated first-draft translations of civil and legal documents (birth certificates, marriage records, court documents, academic transcripts, police clearances, and similar) between Tagalog/Filipino and English
• Verify names, dates, numbers, and other critical details are transcribed exactly as they appear in the source document
• Apply standard transliteration conventions to proper nouns where needed
• Sign the certification statement attesting to translation accuracy and completeness for each completed document
• Flag documents with ambiguous phrasing, regional dialect variation, or unclear source content for additional review
• Meet turnaround commitments ranging from same-day rush requests to standard 48-hour delivery

What we're looking for

• Native or near-native fluency in Tagalog/Filipino and professional fluency in English
• Demonstrated experience translating legal, civil, or immigration-related documents
• Strong attention to detail, particularly with names, dates, and official terminology
• Familiarity with the format and conventions of Philippine civil registry documents, court records, or academic credentials
• Ability to work independently against deadlines with minimal supervision
• Comfortable reviewing and correcting AI-generated translation drafts rather than translating entirely from scratch

Nice to have

• Prior experience as a certified or court-approved translator
• Familiarity with USCIS translation certification requirements (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3))
• Experience translating for immigration attorneys, adoption agencies, or university admissions offices
