I need 57 pages translated from Somali to English for an asylum application. Professional certified translation quotes are around $155, which my family can't afford. If you're bilingual, and especially if you're certified or work in a related field, I'd really appreciate any time you can give. You can work on any portion; even five or ten pages helps. I'll send scans securely through the platform's messaging once we agree. The deadline is December, but earlier is better so there's time for review. I'll happily provide a letter of thanks and a reference. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

  • Sending love, Vida. This could happen to any of us. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home

      Best of luck, Vida. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Madina.

      • Sending love, Vida. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
