On the 2025 civics test, some answers depend on your state. For Indiana, that includes the governor, the state capital, one current senator, and your U.S. representative.
Start with fixed answers
Lock in the state capital and the governor before adding names that can change.
Choose one senator
USCIS asks for one senator, so pick the name you can say most confidently out loud.
Confirm your district
Finish with your House representative because that answer depends on your current address.

Common questions
FAQ
These are the follow-up questions applicants usually ask when they start reviewing state-specific answers.
Who is the governor of Indiana now for the citizenship test?

What is the capital of Indiana for the civics test?

Who is one of Indiana's U.S. senators now?
For Indiana applicants, one correct senator answer is Jim Banks or Todd Young. Either name works because USCIS asks for one senator, not both, but it helps to know both names for review.
