Depends on your district
8 possible House districtsWhy local facts matter
The national test still asks where you live
On the 2025 civics test, some answers depend on your state. For Maryland, 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.
District-aware answer

Common questions
FAQ
These are the follow-up questions applicants usually ask when they start reviewing state-specific answers.
Who is the governor of Maryland now for the citizenship test?
When you practice this answer, the current governor answer for Maryland is Wes Moore. 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 Maryland for the civics test?
When you practice this answer, the capital of Maryland is Annapolis. 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 Maryland's U.S. senators now?
When you practice this answer, one correct senator answer is Angela D. Alsobrooks or Chris Van Hollen. 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 Maryland?
When you practice this answer, your House answer depends on your address, not just your state. Maryland currently has 8 congressional districts, so use a ZIP code or address lookup when available, or choose your district in the fallback tool on this page.
