Citizenship test prep · 2025 civics test
StepCivics teaches all 128 questions on the 2025 civics test, gives you mock tests that stop the way the officer does, and helps you practice for the English reading, writing and speaking test.

Study
The questions and answers come from USCIS’s official list for the 2025 civics test. Study a little each day, and StepCivics shows you what’s left before your interview.
Flip a card, say your answer out loud, then mark it Known or Unsure. Spaced repetition brings each card back just before you’d forget it, so the ones you miss come up more often.
How many amendments does the U.S. Constitution have?
USCIS answerTwenty-seven (27)
Multiple choice, one section at a time. The wrong choices come from other answers in the same section, so you can’t guess by the look of them.
Any question you miss twice or more goes on your weak list, and stays there until you get it right.

Add your interview date for a countdown and a daily goal. A week before, StepCivics reminds you to check the officials’ names again.
65 or older, and a permanent resident for 20 years or more? You can study just the 20 starred questions. The officer asks 10, and you need 6 right.
Practice sentences built from USCIS’s reading and writing vocabulary lists. At the interview you read 1 of 3 sentences aloud and write 1 of 3. Dictation audio comes with Premium.
The speaking test comes from your own N-400. Practice the “Have you ever…” words and the commands officers use, like “Please be seated” and “Raise your right hand.”

FAQ
No. StepCivics is an independent study app, and it isn’t affiliated with USCIS or the U.S. government. A USCIS officer gives the real test at your naturalization interview.
StepCivics uses the official questions and answers from USCIS’s list for the 2025 civics test. Study for the Test on uscis.gov
It depends on when you filed Form N-400. If you filed on or after October 20, 2025, you take the 2025 civics test: the officer asks up to 20 of the 128 questions, and you pass with 12 right. The officer stops at 12 right or 9 wrong.
If you filed before October 20, 2025, you take the 2008 test, with 100 questions. StepCivics covers the 2025 test only. Study for the Test on uscis.gov
65/20: if you’re 65 or older and have been a permanent resident for 20 years or more, you can study just the 20 starred questions. The officer asks 10, you need 6 right, and you can take the test in the language of your choice.
50/20 and 55/15: if you’re 50 or older with 20 years as a permanent resident, or 55 or older with 15 years, you don’t take the English test. You still take the civics test, in your own language with an interpreter. Your age and years count on the day you file.

Eight answers depend on your state or on who holds an office. StepCivics takes the names from official government sources, updates them after elections and appointments, and shows the date each answer was verified. The app checks for new names every week, and within a day after a change.
