Get a Free QuoteBefore USCIS approves a petition based on a current marriage, it has to confirm both spouses were legally free to marry. If either spouse was married before, the Pakistani decree that ended that marriage needs a certified English translation attached to the new immigration document translation filing, built to the same USCIS certified translation standard as every other document in the case.
Our language services team handles this translation regularly for Frisco’s growing South Asian community, often alongside a notary translation of the decree for agencies that ask for notarization on top of certification.

Khula and Talaq Decrees Follow Different Paths
A Pakistani divorce can come through a civil family court decree, a khula granted at the wife’s request, or a talaq registered with the local union council, and each uses different legal terminology on the page. A certified translator renders the specific process and terminology as written rather than smoothing it into a single generic term, so the translation accurately reflects which legal process actually ended the marriage.
“Any document containing foreign language submitted to USCIS shall be accompanied by a full English language translation which the translator has certified as complete and accurate, and by the translator’s certification that he or she is competent to translate from the foreign language into English.”
— American Translators Association, summary of the federal certified-translation requirement, citing 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does USCIS need my divorce decree if I’m petitioning based on my current marriage?
USCIS has to confirm that both spouses were legally free to marry. A certified translation of the decree that ended any prior marriage is standard supporting evidence for that petition.
My divorce was a khula, not a standard civil court decree. Does the translation handle that differently?
The translator renders the specific legal process and terminology as written rather than generalizing it, since the type of decree can matter to how USCIS and an attorney evaluate the case.
Can you also translate my nikah nama if it’s needed for the same petition?
Yes. Marriage contracts, decrees, and related civil records are commonly translated together, and we can handle the full set in one order.
How fast can I get a certified Urdu divorce decree translation?
Most documents are ready within 24-48 hours. Same-day rush service is available for time-sensitive filings.
