Hire a Italian Interpreters

No, and the wording matters because the phrase is used loosely elsewhere. Italian is not one of the twelve certified spoken languages in California, which are Arabic, Cantonese, Eastern Armenian, Farsi, Filipino (Tagalog), Korean, Mandarin, Portuguese, Punjabi, Russian, Spanish and Vietnamese. Italian interpreters credential through the registered path, which requires the written exam, the oral proficiency exam in English and the oral proficiency exam in the target language where one is available. See our court-certified interpreters page for how certified and registered differ.

Neither exists. The federal court interpreter certification examination is offered for Spanish and English testing only, so for Italian the Administrative Office's category is professionally qualified, reached through a State Department or United Nations examination, a National Center for State Courts examination, or AIIC or TAALS membership with English in the pair. New York does not certify either: passing the Unified Court System examination places an interpreter on the registry of per diem court interpreters. We state the exact status rather than calling anyone Italian court certified.

Yes. Hospital consultations, independent medical examinations and USCIS interviews are regular Italian assignments, most often for older patients and family petitions. For immigration work see our immigration and asylum support page.
