Citizenship Test Answers for Puerto Rico
Four of the 128 civics questions depend on where you live. Here is how to answer them if you live in Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico has no U.S. senators. Its representative in Congress is a nonvoting Resident Commissioner; naming that person is acceptable, and so is saying the territory has no voting representatives.
62. What is the capital of your state?
Answer for Puerto Rico
San Juan
This is the one state-specific answer that does not change, which is why it is the only one printed on this page.
23. Who is one of your state's U.S. senators now?
Answer for Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico has no U.S. senators. Saying so is the correct answer.
29. Name your U.S. representative.
Your representative depends on your congressional district, not just your state, so it is different for two people living in the same city. Look it up by ZIP code.
Find your representative at house.gov
Residents of territories with nonvoting Delegates or Resident Commissioners may provide the name of that Delegate or Commissioner. Also acceptable is any statement that the territory has no (voting) representatives in Congress.
61. Who is the governor of your state now?
Governors are elected and change, so answer with whoever is serving on the day of your
interview. Your state government's official .gov website is the reliable
place to check.
