Citizenship Test Answers for Your State
Four of the 128 civics questions have a different answer depending on where you live. The official list simply says "Answers will vary." for all four.
- 23. Who is one of your state's U.S. senators now?
- 29. Name your U.S. representative.
- 61. Who is the governor of your state now?
- 62. What is the capital of your state?
We publish state capitals and nothing else. Capitals do not change. Senators, representatives and governors change with every election, and a name that has gone stale on a study page is worse than no name at all, so each state page sends you to the official lookup instead. That is also what USCIS does.

The official list calls these out separately, because the answers are different in kind: no senators, and in D.C.'s case no governor and no state capital.
