Interpreter Services Program
Request within 10 days. Under State Government Article § 10-1103 and COMAR 14.09.03.04, a party must request an interpreter within ten days of the filing of issues. Late requests are not honored.
How to request. Submit the request in CompHub. If you don't use CompHub, email ipo@wcc.state.md.us with:
- Claimant's name and WCC claim number
- Hearing date and location
- Number of witnesses who need an interpreter
- Language or dialect
- Your name and phone number
No party may bring its own interpreter. Attorneys should cancel at least two days before the hearing to avoid the minimum fee.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who qualifies for an interpreter?
Anyone who can't speak, read, write or understand English well enough to take part effectively in a hearing.
What languages are available?
Any language for which a qualified interpreter is available, through Commission staff and approved contractors.
Who pays?
The Commission pays only when it arranges the interpreter. It does not pay when an attorney brings a court-certified interpreter, and the Commissioner hearing the case must approve any interpreter the office didn't arrange.
Who can make a request?
Claimants, witnesses and attorneys, within 10 days of the filing of issues.
What if my hearing is rescheduled?
Submit a new request. A new reservation number will be issued.
What does the interpreter do?
The interpreter may meet you beforehand to explain the process but can't discuss the issues in your hearing. They interpret only the spoken word and do not speak for you.
How do I check the status of my hearing?
Claimants should contact their attorney first. You can also call the automated system at (410) 864-5100 (option 2), or view your claim in CompHub.
How do I cancel an interpreter?
Call the Interpreter Program Office right away at (410) 864-5299. CompHub subscribers can cancel online in CompHub.
Are interpreter cases scheduled differently?
They are scheduled like other cases, but may be continued to allow enough time.
