Immigration Court | Advisals

Hello! 👋 Welcome to Interprepedia!

We are in the middle of a humanitarian and administrative crisis in the US. We are facing record numbers in terms of human displacement worldwide, and there is an unprecedented number of people who have fled or are fleeing their home countries to travel to the US.

This has overloaded the immigration system and there is a record backlog with millions of cases now pending. With that comes an increasing need for interpreters in this field.

Candidates eligible for this opportunity should meet the following requirements:
- Be a US citizen or legal permanent resident based in the US
- Have at least 1 year of interpreting experience
- Have some experience in the legal field

This is the third of four videos I will be sharing in my Immigration Court mini-series. In just a few minutes you’ll be able to practice simultaneous interpretation while becoming familiar with some of the most common advisals given by IC judges.

I mostly interpret in medical settings or in state court, so sometimes I need a little help to shift my brain back in gear when I’m scheduled to interpret for an immigration court case. I like to play these while I’m driving in my car on my way to court and it helps me a lot because by the time I get there I feel it’s easier for this terminology to just flow out of my mouth.

Enjoy!!! 🌹

As far as I know, the Federal Exam has a maximum speed of 150 words per minute. This is between 180 and 200 words per minute. It is faster than any exam I have taken. It does not leave much room to turn phrases around in the Spanish language, and it does not even stop where there is a written pause given by a period. This has been obviously done using voice-over software and does not reflect real human speech in a court of law.
