US Citizenship Test Practice
Practice the official USCIS civics questions as mock tests or flashcards for free.
How the test works: If you filed Form N-400 on or after October 20, 2025, you take the 2025 civics test. The officer asks you up to 20 questions from a bank of 128, and you must answer 12 correctly. If you filed before that date, you take the 2008 test: up to 10 questions from a bank of 100, and 6 correct answers to pass.

FAQ
- The citizenship test, also called the naturalization test, is part of your USCIS interview. It has two parts: an English test and a civics test. In the civics test, an officer asks you questions about U.S. history and government, and you answer out loud.
- It depends on when you filed Form N-400. On the 2025 test, the officer asks up to 20 questions from a bank of 128. On the 2008 test, the officer asks up to 10 from a bank of 100.
- You need 12 correct answers on the 2025 test and 6 correct answers on the 2008 test.
- Your filing date decides. If you filed Form N-400 on or after October 20, 2025, you take the 2025 test. If you filed before that date, you take the 2008 test. The date is on your USCIS receipt notice.
