Hi everyone,

 

My kid has the citizenship test coming up in a few days. It's been a few years since I took mine and I honestly do not remember what the Questions part of it looks like. Can anyone remind me? Is it Multiple Choice or do you have to provide an answer? Touch screen or verbal answer?

 

Thank you so much!

02/14/2014 - Case shipped to Embassy, where it waited for over a year at my request                                 11/07/2015 - AOS approved (EAD and AP had already been approved) - there was no interview

05/21/2015 - Interview - Approved

The civics test is administered orally, and it’s not a multiple choice test. If you get the first six answers right, they’ll move on with the interview.

I’d recommend you have your kid use the materials @Mike E provided and be prepared to answer as closely to what is in those as possible. Also, have him/her memorize the names of your senators (technically, just one is required), the governor of your state, and your rep in the House. Best of luck!

As others said will be an oral test. They also will ask him to read a phrase on a tablet and write the answer too.

 

Mine was like in the middle of the conversation, the agent just asked me 3 or 4 questions.

 

Good Luck

Thanks, all. She has been studying a lot for the test, reviewing the 100 questions essentially every day. Her English is nearly flawless so we're not at all concerned on that level.
