Prism Linguistics provides Kurmanji and Sorani Kurdish interpreters for asylum interviews, court hearings and medical appointments in North Las Vegas and nationwide, and certified translation of Iraqi, Kurdistan Region, Syrian and Turkish records for USCIS.
Kurdish Translators in North Las Vegas
Prism Linguistics provides qualified Kurdish translators in North Las Vegas and professional Kurmanji and Sorani Kurdish interpreters for the asylum offices, courts, hospitals and attorneys serving North Las Vegas's Kurdish community, with certified Kurdish translation of Iraqi, Syrian and Turkish records for USCIS.
North Las Vegas is an incorporated city in its own right inside Clark County, separate from Las Vegas next door. Felonies, larger civil suits and family matters go to the Eighth Judicial District Court, which sits for the whole county, while traffic offenses and misdemeanors inside the city limits stay in the North Las Vegas Municipal Court. The separate North Las Vegas Justice Court takes evictions and small claims from the surrounding township.
The Clark County School District translates materials into the seven most spoken languages other than English: Spanish, French, Tagalog, Amharic, simplified and traditional Chinese, and Farsi. Its statement on English language learners also appears in Arabic, Swahili and Tigrinya, and its newcomer families speak 46 languages between them. Courts come to Prism for the rarer languages behind that list, which most providers cannot supply, and attorneys for USCIS filings. Our only office is in New York; a linguist near North Las Vegas covers in-person work.
Certified Kurdish Translation in North Las Vegas
Certified Kurdish translation in North Las Vegas means reading three scripts in one family file: Sorani in Arabic letters, Kurmanji in Latin letters, and the Arabic or Turkish around them. Beyond civil records, the requests are for KRG school and university certificates, a Peshmerga service record, a mosque marriage contract in Kurdish, and letters from a village mukhtar. A qualified Kurdish translator names the variety on the Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Kurdish Translation for USCIS in North Las Vegas
Kurdish translation for USCIS in North Las Vegas is mostly refugee follow-on filings: the I-730 for a spouse still in Duhok or Kobani, the I-485 a year after arrival, naturalization later. Refugees arrive with an I-94 and a UNHCR card rather than a passport, so the spelling on those becomes the reference and every Kurdish record is translated to match it. A mosque marriage certificate goes in beside the civil one.
Kurdish Court Document Translation in North Las Vegas
Kurdish court document translation in North Las Vegas is largely evidence for immigration court: an arrest warrant or summons from Iraq, a Syrian security branch document, a Turkish indictment against a Kurdish activist, threat letters in Sorani or Kurmanji. Provenance matters, so the translation reproduces every stamp, signature block and handwritten annotation. For US civil cases we also translate Kurdish messages and audio, with the variety identified.
Kurdish to English Translation Services in North Las Vegas
Certified Kurdish to English translation is the bulk of our Kurdish document work: Iraqi civil status cards, nationality certificates, KRG birth and marriage certificates in Sorani and Arabic, and Turkish and Syrian records, each handled by a qualified Kurdish translator with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
The Iraqi paperwork is where most of that Kurdish translation work sits: the civil status identity card (hawiyat al-ahwal al-madaniyya), the nationality certificate (shahadat al-jinsiya), the unified national ID card that is replacing both, and birth and marriage certificates. Records from the Kurdistan Region are issued in Sorani Kurdish, in Arabic, or bilingually, often under a Kurdistan Regional Government header, and Iraq's federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs must attest a KRG document before an embassy accepts it. USCIS does not need that attestation, but it does need every stamp translated, and a translator who works only from Arabic will skip the Kurdish half of a bilingual form. Our Kurdish translators read both.
Kurdish from Syria and Turkey looks different. A Kurd from Turkey holds Turkish documents in Latin script with a Turkicised name; a Kurd from Syria may hold a civil registry extract, or only UNHCR registration from a camp. A name can be Muhammad on an Iraqi ID, Mehmet on a Turkish one and Mihemed in Kurmanji. We spell to the passport and note the variants, because a name mismatch is the usual reason a Kurdish file draws a Request for Evidence.
Every certified Kurdish translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet USCIS requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in North Las Vegas gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Kurdish Interpreter in North Las Vegas
Prism supplies experienced Kurdish interpreters in North Las Vegas, Kurmanji or Sorani as the speaker needs, for asylum interviews, court hearings, depositions and medical appointments, in person, by phone or by video, with certified Kurdish translation of bilingual Iraqi and KRG documents.
Kurdish Interpreters in North Las Vegas
Our Kurdish interpreters in North Las Vegas are professional, experienced linguists who work in asylum offices, immigration and state courts, hospitals and law firms, booked by variety, Kurmanji or Sorani, because a Kurdish interpreting assignment given the wrong one fails in the room.
Kurmanji or Sorani? Say which. They are the two main varieties of Kurdish and far enough apart that a Sorani interpreter from Sulaymaniyah and a Kurmanji speaker from Duhok or from Turkey will struggle with each other in a courtroom. Kurmanji is written in Latin letters, Sorani in an Arabic-based script. Around 25,000 Kurdish Americans were counted in the 2020 Census, community estimates run to 40,000 and beyond, and the largest concentration, in Tennessee, is mostly Kurmanji-speaking and mostly from Iraqi Kurdistan. Refugee resettlement and the Syrian war added Kurmanji speakers from Syria and Turkey and Sorani speakers from Iran and Iraq.
No state runs a court certification exam in Kurdish. Tennessee's courts list Kurdish among the languages they receive interpreter requests for, and courts there and elsewhere use registered or otherwise qualified Kurdish interpreters; tell us the court and the variety and we send the right person. Hospitals taking federal funds must provide a Kurdish interpreter at no cost. At asylum interviews, where most Kurdish cases sit, the interpreter must give the officer the answer as spoken, place names and dates included, without smoothing over the parts that sound inconsistent.
For an in-person assignment in North Las Vegas we assign a Kurdish interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. We serve courts, attorneys, hospitals, USCIS applicants and private individuals; we are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor, and we say so up front.
About the Kurdish Language
Kurdish is the language of one of the world's largest stateless ethnic groups, with around 30 million speakers distributed across southeastern Turkey, northern Iraq, northwestern Iran, and northern Syria. It is not a single uniform language, Kurmanji and Sorani are the two main written forms, with significant differences in script and vocabulary. When a US client asks for "Kurdish translation" the first question we ask is which variant the source document is in. Most of our Kurdish work is USCIS asylum documentation tied to ongoing conflict in the region, plus family-court and healthcare translation for the established Kurdish-American community in Nashville and Northern California.

Kurdish Translation in North Las Vegas: FAQs
Do you send Kurmanji or Sorani interpreters?
Both, and we ask which before we book. Kurmanji (Northern Kurdish, spoken in Turkey, Syria and the Duhok area of Iraq) and Sorani (Central Kurdish, spoken around Erbil and Sulaymaniyah and in Iranian Kurdistan) are different enough that one interpreter will not reliably serve the other, and a court or asylum office will not stop to check. Tell us the speaker's home region and we match it.
My Iraqi Kurdistan documents are in Kurdish and Arabic. Do you translate both?
Yes. KRG-issued civil status cards, nationality certificates and birth records are often bilingual, and USCIS requires every visible field translated, so we translate both the Sorani and the Arabic text plus stamps and seals, spell names to match the passport, and deliver a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Do you have an office in North Las Vegas?
No. Our only office is in New York. Kurdish translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in North Las Vegas we assign a Kurdish interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in the United States.
