Hi,
We are from india ,(my wife is a prime applicant ) her birth certificate is in punjabi and mine is in hindi

1. Does the translation have to be done by a professional translator or can anyone who is proficient in a language do the translation and the have the documents are Notarized. Are Notarized and translated copy from a local notary office is enough ?

2. If it has to be done by a translator, does the translator have to be certified?

3. Also many of the funds are in 5 year lock in (Tax saving fixed deposits in bank that cannot be liquidated before 5 years from now ) in my name , can i show them as my wife's.

4. Can joint Accounts can also be used to show worth of prime applicant.

Get your documents translated from http://www.institutfrancais.in/content/services , they do certified translations

3. Also many of the funds are in 5 year lock in (Tax saving fixed deposits in bank that cannot be liquidated before 5 years from now ) in my name , can i show them as my wife's. - Yes

4. Can joint Accounts can also be used to show worth of prime applicant. - Yes
 
One answer to all your questions is that you need to get her birth certificate translated by a certified translator.

Best way is to check with issuing authority if they can issue same certificate in English.. This is much better than any other arrangement..

Same thing i did in Gujarat.. Now i have an English birth certificate.. Why to get into translation business.. English documents will also helpful in future..
