The new translations are already present in all of our frontfile processing, and are being added to the backfile one year at a time, working backward from the present. Full text records are being processed first and we will eventually be filling in gaps for records that were unable to be translated previously. For specific progress, check the Translation Reload Status or contact support@ificlaims.com.

Completeness

After completing the load of new translations for the past ten years, our analysis shows that we have increased the percentage of full text records which contain English translations to nearly 100%. Out of 44,457,285 records filed between 2010 and 2019 containing claims in any language, the number of records which do not currently have claims in English is only 38, bringing IFI’s coverage to 99.999915%.

The following table shows the number and percentage of records with English translations by country for the years 2010-2019.
