You can get it near boulton market (prize bond dealers row, opposite to state bank and post office). BTW I used my 10th certificate for evidence of age, but I am not sure whether they will accept it or not.

Hi,

The acknowledgement email from DIAC has this to say about translation:

Original documents in languages other than English should be accompanied by an English translation. English translations must be official certified translations from a National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters accredited translator. Translations provided by non-accredited translators outside Australia should be endorsed by the translator with their full name, address, telephone number, and details of their qualifications and experience in the language being translated.

So, did the translators near boulton market do the following:

1. Write their full name,
2. adress,
3. telephone number,
4. details of their qualifications and experience in Urdu??

Looking forward to response...

In my experience, and mentioned in immi website, you do not have to specifically send birth certificate for age or statistics confirmation. You can send original scan copy of driving licence, matric certificate, college certificate, or any certain authenticated documentary evidences (english only) where written date of birth is stated.
As far as i know many of applicants do not bother to send birth certificate, and its been accepted by immi dept without any issue.

what was the need of that, NAATI us used for those documents which u are using to claim extra points, like community language points (i think), i have sent marriage certificate with English translation from local layer and got accepted.

For birth certificate, FRC(Family registration certificate) from NADRA is also acceptable.
I did not have my birth certificate and got new one which is already in English from cantt area of lahore.
