How the USCIS Civics Test Works

OFFICIAL FORMAT

📌 Interview Format A USCIS officer will ask up to 10 civics questions from the official 100-question list. You must answer at least 6 of 10 correctly (60%) to pass. Questions are asked orally — no multiple choice.

⏰ Second Attempt If you fail the civics or English test, you get a second opportunity 60–90 days after your initial interview. If you fail again, USCIS will deny your application.

👴 65/20 Senior Exemption Applicants aged 65 or older who have been a lawful permanent resident for 20+ years need only study the designated 20 questions (marked with an asterisk in the official USCIS list).

The Oath of Allegiance

MEMORIZE THIS

"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

📌 About the Oath By taking this oath, new citizens pledge to: renounce loyalty to all foreign nations, support the U.S. Constitution, defend the U.S. against enemies, bear arms for the U.S. (if required), and perform civilian service (if required). The phrase "so help me God" is optional — you may omit it for religious or personal reasons.
