None of my clients complained about receiving a denial due to my Certified Translations so far, and I haven´t heard that before.

What I´ve heard is that some Notaries are notarizing the translated document instead of the Certificate of Accuracy signed by the translator. Perhaps, that might be one of the reasons of the USCIS´ denial.
