How to Find Your Senators and Representative for the Civics Test
How to study the USCIS civics answers for your U.S. senators and House representative using ZIP lookup — plus governor and capital.

Why ZIP matters
Senators are statewide, but your House representative depends on your district. ZIP lookup is the fastest way to study the right names for where you live.
What to memorize
Know both U.S. senators for your state, your representative, your governor, and your state capital. Federal names (President, VP, Speaker, Chief Justice) also count as changing answers.
Use practice ZIP lookup
Open civics practice, enter your ZIP, and study the returned officials. If a ZIP spans districts, learn which district is yours before interview day.
Recheck before the appointment
Special elections and resignations happen. Verify names again the week of your interview so you do not answer with someone who left office.
