Prism Linguistics provides Waray translators for the affidavits, barangay certifications and letters that speakers from Samar, Leyte and Biliran file with USCIS, and Waray interpreters for medical appointments, immigration interviews and court hearings in Pompano Beach and across the United States.
Prism Linguistics provides qualified Waray translators in Pompano Beach and professional Waray interpreters for the USCIS appointments, hospitals, courts and attorneys that serve Pompano Beach's families from Samar, Leyte and Biliran. Our Waray translation services cover the affidavits, barangay certifications and letters that sit around a PSA certificate, each delivered with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Pompano Beach sits in Broward County, which forms Florida's Seventeenth Judicial Circuit. Felonies, family and larger civil matters go to the Circuit Court, while misdemeanors, ordinance violations, traffic infractions and small claims are heard in County Court; north Broward cases are handled at the North Regional Courthouse in Deerfield Beach rather than the main Fort Lauderdale courthouse.
Broward County Public Schools translates district-wide forms and documents into its three predominant languages, Haitian Creole, Portuguese and Spanish, covering registration packets, report cards and the Code of Student Conduct. Locally, Haitian Creole and French are everyday languages, Spanish is widely spoken, and the Brazilian Portuguese community is concentrated in Pompano Beach and Deerfield Beach. Broward Health North adds hospital work. Prism Linguistics has a single office, in New York, and assigns a linguist based near Pompano Beach for in-person hearings, medical appointments and USCIS-compliant certified translation. Courts come to us for the rare languages other providers cannot supply.
Certified Waray to English translation is rarely about the PSA certificate, which is already in English; it is the late-registered local certificate, baptismal record, affidavit or barangay certification written in Waray beside it, translated in full by a professional Waray translator for USCIS or an attorney.
Start with the PSA copy. A Philippine Certificate of Live Birth is filed with the Local Civil Registry Office of the town and forwarded to the Philippine Statistics Authority, and the PSA copy on security paper, in English, is what USCIS wants. Where the PSA returns no record, the applicant substitutes what they can: a late-registered local certificate, a baptismal record, or affidavits sworn by relatives, and in Eastern Visayas those are the documents written in Waray. So is a barangay certification from a Samar or Leyte town, and so are the messages that support a fiancé petition. The trap is the label. A document marked Bisaya may be Waray, Cebuano or Hiligaynon, and a translator who assumes Cebuano will guess at the Waray. Our Waray translators translate exactly what is not in English, keep the PSA registry number on the translation and spell names to match the passport.
Every certified Waray 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 Pompano Beach gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Our Waray interpreters in Pompano Beach are professional, experienced linguists who work in hospitals, immigration offices and state courts, booked as Waray interpreters rather than as generic Filipino interpreters, because that distinction is the whole reason the assignment works.
Waray, Winaray, Samarnon: one language, several names. It is the language of Samar, Northern Samar, Eastern Samar, Leyte and Biliran, and the 2020 Philippine census counted it in 698,745 households. Nearly every Waray speaker also has Tagalog and school English, so bookings default to a Filipino interpreter, meaning Tagalog, and an older Waray speaker from a Samar barangay follows politely and misses the detail. Working-age Waray speakers in the United States rarely need a Waray interpreter; a parent petitioned over on a family visa, or a witness under cross-examination, does. No state runs a court certification exam in Waray, so courts use a qualified Waray interpreter, usually by phone or video. Hospitals that take federal funds must provide one at no cost.
For an in-person assignment in Pompano Beach we assign a Waray 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.

Waray (Waray-Waray) is a Philippine Visayan language spoken by around 3.5 million people in Eastern Visayas, primarily Samar and Leyte islands. The Waray-American community is part of the broader Filipino-American population in California, Hawaii, and the East Coast. Our Waray translation work is mostly USCIS civil documents from Eastern Visayan sources, alongside academic transcripts and family-reunification paperwork. Waray uses the Latin alphabet.

No state certifies court interpreters in Waray. We are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor.
