Lunda Interpreters in Ottawa

Our Lunda interpreters work in refugee, immigration and settlement settings in Ottawa, and because the language spans three countries we ask about home area and gender preference at intake.

Interpreting is the more likely need, in an IRB refugee hearing, an IRCC interview or a settlement or medical appointment. English, Portuguese and French are the languages of the records, not of the testimony, so we confirm the speaker's preferred language and the needs of the hearing or appointment before it and assign a Lunda interpreter rather than assume an official language will do.

Lunda is spoken across three countries with some regional variation, and we ask about home area and gender preference at intake. We assign in person in Ottawa where possible and otherwise by phone and video.

For an in-person assignment in Ottawa we assign a Lunda interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. Courts, law firms, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private clients book us directly.

Lunda Court, Medical and IRCC Interpreters in Ottawa

Lunda interpreters for Ottawa attend IRB refugee hearings, IRCC interviews and medical appointments, assigned in Lunda rather than defaulting to an official language, on site where an interpreter is near or by phone or video.

Ottawa, the national capital, is officially bilingual and increasingly multilingual, with a large and growing newcomer population. After English and French, Arabic is the most common non-official mother tongue, spoken by roughly three per cent of residents, followed by Spanish, Mandarin and other Chinese languages. Refugee resettlement and skilled migration have brought sizeable Arabic, Somali, Mandarin and Spanish speaking communities to neighbourhoods across the city.

Demand for translation and interpreting is strong across government, healthcare, education and legal services. Newcomers preparing IRCC and citizenship applications need accurate certified document translation, and hospitals such as The Ottawa Hospital and CHEO rely on interpreters for patient care. Legal matters are heard at the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice at the Ottawa Courthouse, with minor claims handled by Small Claims Court. Settlement agencies including the Ottawa Community Immigrant Services Organization help families integrate.

About the Lunda Language

Lunda is a Bantu language spoken by around 400,000 people in northwestern Zambia, southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, and parts of Angola. Documents from this region are typically issued in English (Zambia), Portuguese (Angola) or French (DRC) and routed accordingly, with Lunda itself most often needed for interpreting.
