2008 test · Question 20 of 100 ★ 65/20
Who is one of your state's U.S. Senators now?
Official USCIS answers
- Answers will vary. [District of Columbia residents and residents of U.S. territories should answer that D.C. (or the territory where the applicant lives) has no U.S. Senators.]
Why this is the answer
Each state elects two U.S. Senators to represent it in Congress. The Senators are different for each state, so the correct answer depends on where you live. You should know the names of the two Senators from your state.
💡 Memory tip: Learn your two state Senators' names; every state has exactly two.
This is the 2008 test, for N-400s filed before October 20, 2025. Filed on or after that date? Use the 2025 test.
