How it works


  1. Hear the question

    Press play and the question is read aloud, the way the officer asks it. Nothing to read, nothing to choose from.


  2. Answer out loud

    Say your answer before you look. At the interview there is no list of options and nothing is written down.


  3. Check and mark yourself

    See the official answers, mark whether you had it, and get your result against the real pass mark.

The real test, at the real length

The date you filed Form N‑400 decides which version you take, not the date of your interview. The practice test asks, then runs at the length and pass mark of your version.

You filed Form N‑400 Questions to study The officer asks Correct to pass
On or after Oct 20, 2025 128 up to 20 12
Before Oct 20, 2025 100 up to 10 6
65/20 exception 20 starred up to 10 6

Answered for your state

Four questions have a different correct answer in every state. Tell the practice test where you live and it answers them for your own state, D.C. and the five territories included. For your representative it lists your state’s districts, because the answer depends on the one you live in.

  • Your two U.S. senators
  • Your U.S. representative
  • Your governor
  • Your state capital

Common questions

Is the practice test free?

Yes. There is no account, no email address and nothing to install. Your answers stay in your own browser.

Is it the same as the real civics test?

It uses the official USCIS questions and answers, asks as many questions as the officer does and uses the same pass mark. It cannot tell you how your interview will go: only the officer decides that.

Which version should I practice?

The date you filed Form N‑400 decides it, not the date of your interview. Filed on or after October 20, 2025: the 2025 test. Filed before: the 2008 test. The date is in the “Received Date” box of your Form I‑797C receipt notice.

Can I practice on my phone?

Yes. It works on any phone, tablet or computer, and every question can be played out loud.

I came here from a printed study guide. Am I in the right place?

Yes. This is the address printed on the guide. The guide has every question and answer; the practice test reads them to you and lets you check yourself.

All your information is transmitted using SSL/TLS encryption.

We never receive, store or keep your credit card information. Your credit card information is processed externally by Stripe. The same company that manages payments for companies such as Uber, Lyft, Target, Blue Apron, SquareSpace, Slack and Spotify (to name a few).

U.S. Language Services has a strict confidentiality policy. We understand that in certain cases, given the sensitivity of the information to be translated, some clients require we sign a specific confidentiality agreement (NDA). We would be happy to sign your NDA.

In what currency are your prices?2026-06-05T13:33:09-04:00

All prices — both in the online store and in quotes sent via email — are indicated in U.S. dollars (USD).

How is payment handled when I request a quote?2026-08-27T19:21:08-04:00

Every quote we send includes a payment link. That link can be used by you or by anyone else.

You can forward the link to a family member, a client, or any third party providing the funds. Payment is completed directly through the link and your order proceeds as usual.

If someone else pays, let us know the name or email address of the person who made the payment. There’s no need to tell us in advance. A quick note after the payment is made is enough for us to match it to your quote.

Certified Translation

What is a certified translation?2026-05-15T12:25:41-04:00

A certified translation is a word-for-word translation required for official use by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), universities, colleges, state or federal institutions and courts.

All our certified translations are issued in accordance with the regulations established by the USCIS, the institution that most frequently requires this type of document. A certified translation includes a certificate issued on our corporate letterhead signed by the translator and a U.S. Language Services representative in PDF format.

Do you provide notarization services?2026-05-19T12:44:06-04:00

Yes. We offer notarization as an add-on to our certified translations. This service is priced per document, since each translation is notarized separately with its own notary stamp and signature.

How it works:

  • Notarization is $39 per document.
  • If you don’t need notarization for all of your documents, let us know which ones you’d like notarized when placing your order.
  • Certified and notarized translations are delivered as PDF files.
  • We notarize the certified translation only — we cannot notarize your original document. If you need the original notarized, please have that done before submitting it for translation.

Example: If you’re ordering certified translations for a birth certificate, a marriage certificate, and a bank certificate, you can notarize all three documents, just one, or any combination. You’ll only pay $39 for each translation you choose to notarize.

How much does it cost?2026-05-15T13:26:27-04:00

The price for a certified translation is $39.00 per page. No hidden fees.

Each page may contain up to 250 words or fewer including numbers. Pages may be letter size (8.5″ x 11″), A4 or smaller and one sided.

For languages that use logograms, such as Chinese, Korean and Japanese, each character is considered a word.

How are the pages counted?2026-05-15T13:31:11-04:00

When you order a certified translation, the most significant variable is how the pages of the document are calculated. We take into consideration both the number of physical pages in your original document and the total word count.

Each page may contain up to 250 words. Pages may be letter size (8.5″ x 11″), A4 or smaller and one sided.

For example: A project with 2 physical pages that each contain 500 words (1,000 words total), is calculated as 4 pages (1,000 words ÷ 250 = 4 pages).

What happens if I don’t count the number of pages correctly?2026-05-15T13:30:59-04:00

Don’t worry. Our team reviews each order individually. If the number of pages is greater, we’ll contact you with instructions on how to proceed. If you ordered pages in excess, we’ll issue you a refund using the same payment method.

How long will it take?2026-05-15T12:25:05-04:00

Do you provide apostille services?2026-05-15T12:11:00-04:00

No, we do not provide apostille services.

How are currencies and units of measurement handled?2026-05-15T12:11:11-04:00

In a certified translation, currency values cannot be converted; the currency shown in the original document must be maintained.

If you need the monetary amount to be shown in a different currency, the original document must include the conversion or a note indicating the exchange rate at the time the document was issued. In such cases, only the exchange-rate note will be translated.

The same applies to units of measurement, no conversions can be made, such as:

  • inches to centimeters
  • gallons to liters
  • miles to kilometers
