When is a Russian to English birth certificate translation required?

After the passport, the birth certificate is the most important document that all applicants who want to immigrate to the United States of America must have. Russian nationals who wish to immigrate to the United States of America need to provide a Russian to English certified translation of their birth certificate to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). In addition, the certified translation of the birth certificate is also required for US public and private organizations such as courts, notaries, colleges, schools, Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and others.
