Civics Test Practice

2025–2026 USCIS Naturalization Civics Test · 128 Questions
M-1778 (09/25)
Answer questions the way a USCIS officer would ask them during the naturalization interview. The standard test draws up to 20 questions from all 128; you need 12 correct to pass. The 65/20 test draws up to 10 questions from the 20 starred questions reserved for applicants 65 or older with 20+ years as a permanent resident; you need 6 correct to pass. Either test ends early the moment passing or failing is mathematically decided — just like the real interview. Free, no ads, and no signup required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2026 citizenship test the same as the 2025 test?

Yes. USCIS calls this the 2025 Naturalization Civics Test, and it applies to every Form N-400 filed on or after October 20, 2025 — so it's also the current test for anyone interviewing in 2026. "2025 test" and "2026 test" refer to the same 128 questions.

How many questions are on the citizenship test, and how many do I need right?

The officer asks up to 20 questions from the 128-question pool, and you need 12 correct to pass. If you're 65 or older with 20+ years as a permanent resident, the 65/20 test asks up to 10 questions from a shorter 20-question list, and you need 6 correct.

Does the USCIS officer stop the test early?

Yes — in the real interview, the officer stops asking questions the moment you've either passed (reached 12 correct) or failed (reached 9 wrong) beyond recovery. This tool mirrors that instead of forcing you through a fixed 20 questions every time.

What is the 65/20 test?

It's an accommodation for applicants 65 or older who have held a green card for 20+ years. They study a reduced set of 20 starred questions instead of the full 128, and can take the test in their native language.

Who is the current president, vice president, and speaker of the House?

As of August 2026: President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson. These officeholder answers are kept current in the practice questions and verified against uscis.gov.

Do I need to memorize the exact wording of each answer?

No. USCIS accepts any answer that's substantively correct, in your own words — you don't need to recite the study guide verbatim. This tool grades your answers the same way, accepting reasonable phrasing rather than exact matches.
