24,967 people in Beaverton speak a language other than English at home, Spanish most of all
The Census Bureau counts 92,780 residents of Beaverton aged five and over, in Washington County. 67,813 speak only English at home and 24,967 (27%) speak another language. The largest group speaks Spanish: 11,774 people, 4,326 of whom speak English less than "very well". Next come Vietnamese (1,559) and Russian, Polish, or other Slavic languages (1,116). (ACS 2024 5-year, table C16001.)
In all, 8,639 people in Beaverton speak English less than "very well" by the Census Bureau's own measure, 9% of residents five and over. They are the people most likely to need an interpreter at a USCIS interview, a deposition, a parent-teacher conference or a medical appointment. The smaller groups in the table are estimates from a sample and carry wide margins of error.
Beaverton's nearest immigration court is in Portland, about 7 miles away
EOIR lists the Portland Immigration Court at 1220 SW 3rd Avenue, Suite 500, Portland, OR 97204, about 7 miles from Beaverton in a straight line; the next nearest is the Seattle Immigration Court, about 149 miles away. Immigration courts provide interpreters at government expense for the hearing, to respondents and witnesses. Attorneys book us for the work around it: finding out what the respondent and each witness actually speak before the interpreter request is filed, preparing witnesses to testify through an interpreter, and reading declarations back.
For green card, marriage and naturalization interviews, USCIS's field office by ZIP code table assigns Beaverton's ZIP codes to the USCIS Portland Field Office at 1455 NW Overton Street, Suite 1, Portland, OR 97209, about 7 miles away; the appointment notice names the office for each interview. USCIS does not provide the interpreter for a green card or marriage interview: an applicant who is not fluent in English brings one, who interprets word for word under oath (USCIS Policy Manual), and both sign Form G-1256 in front of the officer. With us, a two-hour interview in person is $220, plus $0.70 a mile of travel from the interpreter's location, confirmed before you pay. See interpreters for USCIS interviews.
What Oregon's courts provide, and what is left to the attorneys
Oregon's state courts provide interpreters in court in criminal and civil cases for parties, witnesses and victims with limited English proficiency. Under ORS 45.275, as the Oregon Judicial Department states it, no fee is charged to the person for the appointment of an interpreter, and court interpreting in circuit court is paid by the state. Use the online Court Interpreter Request Form. Under UTCR 7.070 the party who needs an interpreter must notify the court as soon as possible and no later than four judicial days before the proceeding; the court may waive the notice for good cause. (Oregon Judicial Department, Court Language Access Services.) The Oregon Judicial Department also provides interpreters at the public court counter, in mandatory court arbitration, in court-run or court-mandated mediation, at juror orientation and at Citizen Review Board hearings.
The Oregon Judicial Department says it has no authority to provide or pay for interpreters for jail staff and inmates, probation interviews, presentence investigations, diversion programs, supervised visits, victims' panels, anger management counseling, parenting classes or grand jury witnesses; people should contact those agencies or providers directly. That is where private bookings in Beaverton come in. A three-hour deposition in person is $330, plus $0.70 a mile of travel: a 30-mile round trip adds $21, for $351. By video it is $240. See interpreters for depositions.

What an interpreter costs, worked out
These are the published rates multiplied out: $80 an hour by video or phone, $110 an hour in person, $0.70 a mile of travel.
| Booking | How it is worked out | Total |
|---|---|---|
| One-hour video or phone call | 1 hour × $80 | $80 |
| Two-hour video interview | 2 hours × $80 | $160 |
| Two-hour meeting in person, 20-mile round trip | 2 hours × $110 + 20 miles × $0.70 | $234 |
| Three-hour deposition or closing in person, 40-mile round trip | 3 hours × $110 + 40 miles × $0.70 | $358 |
| Full day in person (six hours), two interpreters in relay | 2 interpreters × 6 hours × $110 | $1,320 plus travel |
The quote confirms the interpreter, the exact travel figure and the total before you book; nothing is charged until you confirm.
How the travel charge works out
Travel is charged at $0.70 per mile from the interpreter's location, which means you can work it out rather than wait for a quote: a 20-mile round trip is $14, a 60-mile round trip is $42, a 150-mile round trip is $105. There is no separate call-out fee on top.
We will not pretend to know in advance where the interpreter will be coming from — that depends on the language, the date and the venue. What we do is confirm the interpreter and the exact travel figure before you book, so it is never a surprise on the invoice. Virtual assignments carry no travel charge at all, which is one reason most of what we do is virtual.
By video, by phone or in person
Virtual interpreting runs on Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams, or over the telephone. It is quicker to arrange, costs less and carries no travel charge, and it suits appointments, calls and most meetings.
In person is what venues with their own rules tend to expect, and the right choice when documents are being signed or several people are speaking at once. Tell us the platform, or the city and the venue, when you send the request.
How booking an interpreter works
- You send the request with the form below: the language, the setting, the format, the date and how long it should last.
- We confirm before you commit: the interpreter, the exact price and the travel figure if there is one. We reply within minutes, four business hours at most, and no payment is taken at this stage.
- You confirm and pay, and the interpreter is booked for your date. The interpreter's name and credentials are sent to you once the booking is paid.
What to have ready
The more of this comes in the first message, the fewer exchanges before you have a price:
- The language, the date, the start time and how long it should run.
- Virtual or in person: the platform, or the city and the venue.
- The setting and the subject matter.
- How many people need interpreting for.
- Any credential the venue requires of the interpreter. We confirm before you book whether we can staff it; the interpreter's name and credentials follow once the booking is paid.
