The changes "to naturalization civics test better assess applicants' knowledge of US history and government," US Citizenship and Immigration Services announced Wednesday.

The 2025 test will reimplement the 2020 naturalization civics test. Under the first Trump administration, USCIS updated the 2008 version of the exam to further test an alien's knowledge of US history and civics. The Biden administration reverted to the 2008 version of the test in 2021.  

Like the 2020 version, the 2025 study guide includes 128 possible questions, up from 100 possible questions in 2008. Aliens are required to answer at least 12 out of 20 questions correctly to pass. The passing score remains the same as the 2020 and 2008 test, but now, administrators of the test do not have to ask all 20 questions but can stop once an alien answers 12 questions correctly or nine questions incorrectly.

"American citizenship is the most sacred citizenship in the world and should only be reserved for aliens who will fully embrace our values and principles as a nation," USCIS spokesperson Matthew Tragesser said.

"By ensuring only those aliens who meet all eligibility requirements, including the ability to read, write, and speak English and understand US government and civics are able to naturalize, the American people can be assured that those joining us as fellow citizens are fully assimilated and will contribute to America's greatness," Tragesser said. 

"These critical changes are the first of many," he added.

The latest version of the citizenship test includes topics that are fundamental to an understanding of American history and government, according to USCIS.

Questions among the 128 study points on the test guide include:

"Name one thing the US Constitution does."
"Name one war fought by the United States in the 1800s."
"Thomas Jefferson is famous for many things. Name one."
"Why did the United States enter World War I?"
"Name one example of an American innovation."... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
