RECENT NEWS - THE REDESIGNED NATURALIZATION EXAM
In the interest of creating a more standardized, fair, and meaningful
naturalization process, the USCIS recently completed a multi-year redesign of
the American citizenship exam. The revised naturalization exam, with an emphasis on the fundamental
concepts of American democracy and the rights and responsibilities of
citizenship, will help encourage citizenship applicants to learn and identify
with the basic values we all share as Americans.
The newly redesigned naturalization exam will take effect on October 1, 2008.
After this date, all citizenship applicants must take the new test. Individuals
that have submitted their citizenship application before October 1, 2008 but
been scheduled to have the naturalization interview after October 1, 2008, can
choose whether to take the current or redesigned naturalization exam. All
applicants scheduled for the naturalization interview after October 1, 2009 must
take the new test.
The American citizenship test study guide developed by U.S. Immigration Support
covers both the current and redesigned test including the 100 civics questions
and answers. Additional topics included in the naturalization exam include an
English oral, reading and writing test in addition to 10 questions about the
American government, integrated civics, and American history.
