Question 29 of 128 American Government
Name your U.S. representative.
Answers USCIS accepts
- Answers will vary.
USCIS note: Residents of territories with nonvoting Delegates or Resident Commissioners may provide the name of that Delegate or Commissioner. Also acceptable is any statement that the territory has no (voting) representatives in Congress.
The answer depends on where you live. Name the current member of the House of Representatives for your congressional district.
This answer changes. You must give the name of the person in office on the day of your interview. Check it just before: house.gov
What it means
Each congressional district elects one representative, so the correct name depends on your address and can change after elections. Find yours by ZIP code on house.gov.
In territories with a nonvoting Delegate or Resident Commissioner, you may name that person, or say the territory has no (voting) representatives in Congress.
Memory tip: Look up your representative by ZIP code and practice the full name.
