One Nation, One People: The USCIS 2025 Civics Test Study Guide

When applying for citizenship applicants must demonstrate knowledge and an understanding of U.S. history and of the principles and form of government in the U.S. (also known as civics). The civics portion of the naturalization test is an oral test. The USCIS officer will ask you up to 10 questions from the list of 100 civics test questions. You must answer 6 questions correctly to pass. Depending on when you filed your naturalization application, you will either take the 2008 or the 2025 naturalization civics test. Applicants who filed Form N-400 to apply for naturalization before Oct. 20, 2025, will take the 2008 naturalization civics test. Applicants who filed Form N-400 to apply for naturalization on or after Oct. 20, 2025, will take the 2025 naturalization civics test. The document featured here is the USCIS 2025 civics test study guide.
