A Haitian Creole interpreter for a USCIS interview in Irving
USCIS does not supply one for a green card or marriage interview: applicants who are not fluent in English bring an interpreter, who shows ID, takes an oath and interprets word for word (USCIS Policy Manual), and you both sign Form G-1256 in front of the officer. The interpreter should be a disinterested party, not your spouse or a witness in the case (G-1256 instructions).
Booked with us, a Haitian Creole interpreter for a two-hour USCIS interview in Irving is $220; with a 30-mile round trip of travel, $241.

Where a Haitian Creole interpreter is needed in Irving, and who provides one
Some of these places must provide the interpreter themselves, and then you should not be paying for one. Where that is so, the official page is linked.
| Place | Who provides the interpreter |
|---|---|
| Dallas Immigration Court (EOIR), 1100 Commerce Street, Suite 1060, Dallas, TX 75242 | The nearest immigration court EOIR lists, about 11 miles away. It provides the interpreter for the hearing at government expense; attorneys book us to prepare the respondent and witnesses. |
| USCIS Dallas Field Office, 6500 Campus Circle Drive East, Irving, TX 75063 | USCIS's ZIP code table assigns Irving's ZIP codes to this office; the appointment notice names the office for each interview. For a green card or marriage interview, applicants who are not fluent in English bring their own interpreter, and both sign Form G-1256. |
| Dallas County district and county courts | On a party's motion or a witness's request the court must appoint a licensed court interpreter (Texas Gov't Code 57.002); a party who files a statement of inability to afford costs does not pay for it. Depositions are arranged by the attorneys. |
| Texas state courts (Government Code chapter 57, Court Interpreters) | In civil and criminal proceedings in Texas courts, the court must appoint a licensed court interpreter for a person who can hear but does not understand or communicate in English when a party files a motion or a witness asks. In criminal cases the interpreter is paid from the county's general fund, and a party who files a statement of inability to afford court costs under Rule 145 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure does not pay for the interpreter unless the court orders costs after a contest. |
| Baylor Scott & White Medical Center at Irving, Medical City Las Colinas and Baylor Surgical Hospital at Las Colinas | A hospital that receives federal financial assistance from HHS must offer a qualified interpreter free of charge and may not require a patient to bring or pay for one (45 CFR 92.201). Ask the hospital's language services first. |
| Depositions and attorney meetings in Irving | Arranged by the attorneys, and so is the interpreter: no court or agency provides one. This is where private bookings come in. |
Haitian Creole is a standard-availability language
Haitian Creole is one of the languages we can normally staff within the week, including for in-person work in most metropolitan areas, and it is priced at the standard rate with no availability surcharge.
Short notice is still worth flagging when you enquire. A next-day virtual assignment is usually possible; a next-day in-person assignment outside a major city frequently is not, and we will say so rather than accept and hope.
The standard-availability languages are: Spanish, Portuguese, French, Mandarin, Cantonese, Arabic, Russian, Korean, Vietnamese, Haitian Creole, Polish, Italian, German, Japanese, Hindi, Urdu, Persian, Turkish, Ukrainian, Tagalog, Bengali, Punjabi, Tamil, Armenian, Greek, Hebrew, Romanian, Serbian, Bosnian, Somali and Nepali. Every other language we offer carries the 25–30% limited-availability rate, except the rare languages — Mam, K’iche’, Q’anjob’al, Tzotzil, Mixtec, Fuzhounese, Hakka, Hakha Chin, Kachin, Balochi, Bambara, Soninke, Tigre, Chaldean Neo-Aramaic and Assyrian Neo-Aramaic — which carry 75%. If a language is not on the standard list it is not because we cannot do it — it is because the pool of qualified interpreters in the United States is small enough that we will not promise a date without checking.
What a Haitian Creole 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.
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.

Yes. Haitian Creole is a standard-availability language, which we can normally staff in person in most metropolitan areas. We confirm the interpreter and the travel figure before you pay; if we cannot staff the date in person, we say so and offer video instead.
Do I need to bring my own Haitian Creole interpreter to a USCIS interview in Irving?
Yes, for a green card or marriage interview. USCIS does not supply one for a green card or marriage interview: applicants who are not fluent in English bring an interpreter, who shows ID, takes an oath and interprets word for word (USCIS Policy Manual), and you both sign Form G-1256 in front of the officer. The interpreter should be a disinterested party, not your spouse or a witness in the case (G-1256 instructions).
Where is the nearest immigration court to Irving?
The Dallas Immigration Court, at 1100 Commerce Street, Suite 1060, Dallas, TX 75242, about 11 miles away in a straight line, per EOIR's court directory. It provides the interpreter for hearings at government expense; preparing the respondent and witnesses is arranged by the attorney.
Which USCIS office handles interviews for Irving?
USCIS's ZIP code table assigns Irving's ZIP codes to the USCIS Dallas Field Office, 6500 Campus Circle Drive East, Irving, TX 75063; check the office on your appointment notice. For a green card or marriage interview, you bring your own interpreter, and you both sign Form G-1256.
Do Texas courts provide interpreters?
In civil and criminal proceedings in Texas courts, the court must appoint a licensed court interpreter for a person who can hear but does not understand or communicate in English when a party files a motion or a witness asks. In criminal cases the interpreter is paid from the county's general fund, and a party who files a statement of inability to afford court costs under Rule 145 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure does not pay for the interpreter unless the court orders costs after a contest. (Texas state courts (Government Code chapter 57, Court Interpreters).)
Is the price per person or per interpreter?
Per interpreter, per hour, billed from the scheduled start time. One interpreter covers a meeting; a full-day hearing may need two working in relay.
What if the venue provides its own interpreter?
Then you should not be paying us. Immigration court provides one, and hospitals and school districts frequently must. Ask them first.
Can I see the interpreter's credentials before I pay?
Tell us the credential the venue or the other side requires when you request, and we confirm before you book whether we can staff it. The interpreter's name and credentials are sent once the booking is paid.
How is travel charged?
$0.70 per mile from the interpreter's location — a 20-mile round trip is $14. We confirm the exact figure before you book, and virtual assignments carry none.
