30,779 people in Camden speak a language other than English at home, Spanish most of all

The Census Bureau counts 66,948 residents of Camden aged five and over, in Camden County. 36,169 speak only English at home and 30,779 (46%) speak another language. The largest group speaks Spanish: 28,522 people, 16,113 of whom speak English less than "very well". Next come French, Haitian, or Cajun (690) and Vietnamese (645). (ACS 2024 5-year, table C16001.)

In all, 17,136 people in Camden speak English less than "very well" by the Census Bureau's own measure, 26% 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.

Camden has its own immigration court, and USCIS sends its interviews to Mount Laurel

EOIR lists the Philadelphia Immigration Court at Robert Nix Federal Bldg and Courthouse, 900 Market Street, Suite 504, Philadelphia, PA 19107; the next nearest is the Newark Immigration Court, about 74 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. EOIR also lists the Elizabeth Immigration Court, about 70 miles away, inside a Department of Homeland Security detention facility.

For green card, marriage and naturalization interviews, USCIS's field office by ZIP code table assigns Camden's ZIP codes to the USCIS Mount Laurel Field Office at 530 Fellowship Road, Mount Laurel, NJ 08054, about 11 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.

Where interpreters are needed in Camden, and who provides them

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.

Worked examples of interpreting costs

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.
