Degree of disability and work ability: two decisions

Estonia separates two assessments. The Social Insurance Board determines the degree of severity of a disability (moderate, severe or profound), which it has done since 2008. For children up to 16 and people of retirement age the degree depends on the need for personal assistance, guidance or supervision; for working-age people it depends on restrictions on taking part in daily and social life.

Since 1 July 2016 the Unemployment Insurance Fund has assessed work ability separately, under the Work Ability Allowance Act. It decides that work ability is not reduced, partial or absent, for up to five years and not beyond pensionable age. A person can hold both decisions, and older files may show a percentage loss of capacity for work from the earlier system.

Translating the decision

We translate the decision exactly, including the degree or level, the period of validity, the legal basis cited and every date. The English terms follow the Estonian law's own translations, so "profound" is not softened to "severe". We do not interpret what a US agency will make of it. A photo or scan of every page is enough. Nothing is summarised.

Supporting medical reports are separate documents; see the Estonian medical records page. For a US benefits claim or a court case, see government agencies and our Estonian page. If you received both a disability decision and a work ability decision, translate both, since each states a different thing: the first the degree of disability, the second the capacity to work. Each decision also states the period for which it applies, which we keep exactly.

What USCIS requires

Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.

State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.

How it works

Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.

A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.

Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.

Certified vs. standard translation

A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.

A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.

Frequently asked questions

I have a disability decision and a work ability decision.

They are different assessments by different agencies. We translate both.

My decision gives a percentage, not a degree.

That is the earlier loss-of-capacity system. We translate it as printed.

Will you explain the US equivalent?

No. We translate the decision exactly; the agency decides its effect.
