What is the US Citizenship Test?
To earn the right to become a citizen, you must first pass a US Citizenship Test which measures your understanding of English by writing, reading, and speaking the language. You also must know the basics of US history and how the government operates. The process begins by completing your initial application for naturalization. Next, you will be required to have your fingerprints taken at a US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) location. Finally, you will be issued an appointment for a naturalization interview. During this interview, you will be asked questions relating to your background and application, followed by the Citizenship Test. A USCIS officer will administer the test to you, beginning with questions relating to your ability to read, write and understand English.
