Lawyers and others know what documents you need to send in plus the ones you need to send out and if you have them all, and they can get them faster and easier
It's not the same effort.

Declaration of residence for the past 5 years was, I believe, in the section. I am a little unsure about the police certification from Japan, but I need a proof of birth in Japan (koseki kyohon) and my mother sent me the original. I am about to ask the embassy to translate it for me as it needs to be translated.

Since I plan to apply online, I think I will be less likely to forget to write things down than if I write them down by hand, but even so, I think there is less risk of the process being delayed due to incompleteness, etc., if I go through a vendor. I am sure there are documents that should be submitted in addition to the application, so I will do as much research as I can on the Internet and submit everything I can.

Sorry, the translation request was correctly consulate, not embassy.

How about translating the translation yourself into English and having it certified by Notary Public?

Thank you for your advice. I would like to take the sure way, but I was wondering if it is ok to use the proof from Nitary? I'm sorry, I don't even know if it's okay since it was translated by the consulate in the first place, so maybe I'm asking the wrong question here.

I just called the consulate and was told that they do not provide translation services, so I will follow your advice and ask Notary to do the translation afterwards. Thank you very much.

Sorry, it is impossible to Notary a translation. Who will determine that the content is correct ？ Notary can notarize that the signature is his/her own, but it is impossible for the text to be correct.
We do not recommend that you translate the document yourself. We do not recommend that you translate the document yourself, because there is a possibility that you may translate it for convenience.

You should have a third party translate the text and get a Certificate from that translator for the Japanese-English translation.
For example, we have the following company.

Honestly, we recommend that you do not ask in Japanese at Bibinagi, but search the internet yourself and do some research.
I did a Google search for how to get translation done for green card application and got the following results

https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+get+translation+done+for+green+card+application&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS980US980&oq=how+to+get+translation+done+for+green+card+application&aqs=chrome..69i57j33i160j33i299j33i22i29i30.13063j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I read them and they said Notary is useless.

Yes, I am ashamed of my ignorance. I will look it up in English once. Thank you very much.

I didn't realize there were so many USCIS certified translation agencies. I'll give it a try, since it seems to be possible to do it by simply sending a scanned image online. It's better and more reliable than asking someone I know. Thank you very much.

I once had a translator translate a copy of my family register and certify it in Notary. This was when my daughter's U.S. passport expired. Also, when a friend of my daughter's who was on a student visa got married, my daughter was asked to go to the Notary to have it certified. I don't remember what it was for, but...

I am thinking of doing so because it is easier to have both the translation and notarization done at once than to have them translated and then go to the Notary, even if it costs a little more money. The problem is the procedure starting with the filing of the I-130 and I-130A, but I will do my best little by little so that I don't make any mistakes.

So, why don't you just leave it all to the lawyers and paralegals? That's what you said.

Yes, that's right.
I also asked for a lawyer a long time ago. He gave me all the information about what and how much to prepare, which and where are the designated clinics for medical examinations, and I signed the documents. About 6 months later, I had an interview, and you were there for the interview.

Why do you need a lawyer to apply for a green card by marriage ？?

We talk about it a lot in this group, and since we have over 10,000 members, I think you can get some pretty specific advice.
Facebook has recently added an anonymous posting feature, so you can protect your privacy.

More than 10,000 Japanese living in the US are registered.

Incidentally, this group includes Japanese psychiatrists, surgeons, obstetricians, female firefighters, school teachers, counselors, and people from a wide variety of industries who are active in the U.S., so I recommend this group as a very useful exchange of information.

I also did the translation of my family register myself. I took my family register, ID and the translated one to Ups and had it notarized. ＄ I think it cost me $30. I also found a hospital and went there by myself. I got my green card in 2020, so I think you can do it by yourself. Good luck ！

The question is how long it will take. That's what you're saying.
