The national test still asks where you live

On the 2025 civics test, some answers depend on your state. For Maine, that includes the governor, the state capital, one current senator, and your U.S. representative.

01

Start with fixed answers

Lock in the state capital and the governor before adding names that can change.

02

Choose one senator

USCIS asks for one senator, so pick the name you can say most confidently out loud.

03

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 Maine now for the citizenship test?

For Maine applicants, the current governor answer for Maine is Janet Mills. This is one of the answers applicants should re-check close to interview day because governors can change after elections, resignations, or appointments.

What is the capital of Maine for the civics test?

For Maine applicants, the capital of Maine is Augusta. Capitals are stable facts, but they still matter because USCIS may ask the question exactly as "What is the capital of your state?"

Who is one of Maine's U.S. senators now?

For Maine applicants, one correct senator answer is Susan M. Collins or Angus S. King Jr.. Either name works because USCIS asks for one senator, not both, but it helps to know both names for review.

How do I find my U.S. representative in Maine?

For Maine applicants, your House answer depends on your address, not just your state. Maine currently has 2 congressional districts, so use a ZIP code or address lookup when available, or choose your district in the fallback tool on this page.
