How the 2025 civics test works
If you filed Form N-400 on or after October 20, 2025, you take the 2025 civics test. The officer asks up to 20 questions from the list of 128 and you pass with 12 correct answers. The test is oral: the officer reads the question and you answer in your own words. The officer stops once you have 12 correct or 9 wrong.
If you are 65 or older and have been a permanent resident for 20 years or more, you only study the 20 starred questions; the officer asks 10 and you need 6 correct.
Some answers change, such as the name of the President or the Speaker of the House. Always check uscis.gov/citizenship/testupdates shortly before your interview. Questions about your own state, senators and representative depend on where you live.
