USCIS Creates New Citizenship Test 

USCIS has introduced a new citizenship test that they propose to use as of October 2008. A large portion of the questions on the new test will focus on principles of U.S. democracy, the American government system and responsibilities and rights of U.S. citizens, along with questions relating to U.S. geography and history. Note that many of these questions will have more than one correct answer.

All individuals who apply for citizenship on or after October 1, 2008 will take this new test as part of their naturalization procedures. Any individual who applies for citizenship before that date, but is interviewed on or after October 1, 2008, will have the choice of which citizenship test to take.
