Question 29 of 128
Name your U.S. representative.
Official USCIS answers
- Answers will vary. [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.]
Your answer depends on where you live. Set your state and we'll check it for you.
Why this is the answer
The U.S. House of Representatives is elected by congressional districts, so each person’s representative depends on where they live. People in U.S. territories may name a nonvoting Delegate or Resident Commissioner, or say their territory has no voting representative in Congress.
💡 Memory tip: Think: your address decides your district, and your district decides your representative.
