Translation and Interpreting Services in Aurora

Interpreters for the Oakland Street immigration court, the Alameda Parkway municipal court and the Anschutz campus, and certified translation for USCIS.

Aurora clients get certified translation from Prism Language Solutions by upload from any address in the city, and interpreters in Spanish, Amharic, Tigrinya, Korean, Nepali, Burmese and more than 300 other languages from our nationwide network of human linguists, with a Front Range linguist sent for in-person work. The city holds an immigration court for detained cases and the USCIS fingerprinting center, and the USCIS field office is a short drive away in Centennial. Everything is run from one New York office, with a fixed written quote inside 60 minutes in business hours.

Aurora calls itself Colorado’s most international city, and its own language access plan backs that up. The plan, adopted in 2021, estimates that about one resident in five was born outside the United States, from some 140 countries, and ranks the city’s top ten languages as Spanish, Korean, Mandarin Chinese, Vietnamese, Amharic, Tigrinya, Nepali, Burmese, Russian and French. The 2020-2024 American Community Survey puts the foreign-born share at 22.4 percent and home use of a language other than English at 33.1 percent.

Aurora Public Schools reports that its more than 38,000 students come from over 130 countries and speak more than 160 languages, and that 42.0 percent are second language learners. Those are numbers that make an unusual language an ordinary Tuesday. The city’s Office of International and Immigrant Affairs coordinates integration work and the Immigrant and Refugee Commission.

Interpreters for the Aurora Immigration Court

The Aurora Immigration Court sits inside the GEO detention center at 3130 North Oakland Street and hears detained cases. The court’s interpreter handles the hearing. The attorney handles everything else, and in detention that means visits on a schedule set by the facility, declarations drafted against a deadline, and identity documents from Central America, West Africa, Venezuela or Afghanistan that have to be translated before the merits hearing.

The language on the intake sheet is often not the language the client needs. Tigrinya and Amharic are separate languages; Guatemalan clients may need Mam or Q’anjob’al; a Mauritanian client may need Pulaar or Hassaniya Arabic. We confirm country, region and first language before we book, and cover rare languages by phone or video when nobody is within reach. See a Tigrinya interpreter, a Mam interpreter and translation for immigration attorneys.

Court Interpreters for Aurora Municipal Court

Aurora Municipal Court at 14999 East Alameda Parkway has Spanish interpreters available every day. For any other language, the court asks for a motion at least 14 days before the hearing, under Chief Justice Directive 06-03, so the time to raise it is at the first appearance, not the week before trial.

State cases depend on which county the address is in. Aurora sprawls across three: Arapahoe County cases go to the 18th Judicial District at the Arapahoe County Justice Center in Centennial, Adams County cases to the 17th at the Adams County Justice Center in Brighton, and Douglas County cases to the new 23rd Judicial District in Castle Rock. Attorney meetings, depositions and translated exhibits in any of them are arranged by counsel. See court interpreting and legal translation.

Medical Interpreters for the Anschutz Campus Hospitals

The Anschutz Medical Campus in north Aurora holds UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital and Children’s Hospital Colorado, and the Rocky Mountain Regional VA Medical Center is next to it on North Wheeling Street. HCA HealthONE Aurora, formerly The Medical Center of Aurora, is on South Potomac Street. All four run their own interpreter services for patients in their care.

What falls outside those services is the care around the hospital stay: a veteran’s spouse at a benefits exam, a family conference about a child’s long-term treatment, an independent medical examination for a work injury claim. Discharge paperwork and records needed by an insurer or a court are medical records translation. See medical interpreting.

Certified Translation for Aurora USCIS Applicants

Aurora applicants give fingerprints and photos at the USCIS Application Support Center at 15350 East Iliff Avenue, inside the city. Interviews are at the Denver Field Office at 12484 East Weaver Place in Centennial, which USCIS assigns to every Colorado ZIP code, and asylum interviews for Colorado are handled by the Houston Asylum Office.

Each foreign-language document in the file needs a complete English translation with a signed certificate of accuracy, as 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) requires, and acceptance is the reviewing officer’s decision. Ethiopian records use the Ethiopian calendar, which we convert in a translator’s note rather than replacing the date. Nepali records are usually dated in the Bikram Sambat calendar and get the same treatment. See USCIS translation and birth certificate translation.

Amharic, Korean and Nepali Translation in Aurora

The city’s ranking is the best guide to written work. Amharic translation and Tigrinya translation cover Ethiopian and Eritrean civil records and court documents. Korean translation is second on the city list, covering documents such as family relation certificates and business contracts. Nepali translation and Burmese translation follow, along with Vietnamese and Spanish.

Community College of Aurora and CU Anschutz both draw students and clinicians with foreign credentials, which means diploma translation and transcript translation for admission and licensing. Documents go through the quote form; phone +1 (833) 282 8883 to book an Amharic interpreter or any other language.

Questions we get asked

Does Aurora Municipal Court provide interpreters?
It has Spanish interpreters available daily. For other languages, the court asks for a motion at least 14 days before the hearing, so raise it as early as possible.
Where is the immigration court in Aurora?
At 3130 North Oakland Street, inside the GEO detention center. It hears detained cases. Colorado’s other immigration court is in Denver, at 1961 Stout Street.
Which state court hears a case from an Aurora address?

Can you translate Ethiopian documents with Ethiopian calendar dates?
Yes. We translate the document in full and give the Gregorian equivalent of each date in a translator’s note, so the original date stays visible for the reviewing officer.
