US Naturalization/Citizenship Test?

Question

What percentage of correct answers do you need to get on the naturalization test to pass for US citizenship?

If possible, please provide a website to back up the information? I have been unable to find documentation.

My husband is Canadian - here on a green card. He is going for his test very soon. He's been working on his questions - they gave him a booklet - but I'd like to know how many he must get right to pass.. just for MY peace of mind. He's aiming for 100%.

Also, there is at least 100 questions, not 10.

Answer 1

6 out of 10 according to the linked document below. The second link is to the Naturalization Test Redesign but does state the same as the first link which is the Naturalization Guide.........

Applicants must still answer six out of 10 questions correctly during the naturalization interview.

There is a section on Naturalization at http://www.familybasedimmigration.com/forum/natquiz.php that contains some fun quizzes to help prepare for the naturalization test. Also other resource links.

Edited to add...There may be 100 questions in total but they don't ask you 100 :-)

Answer 2

There are approximately 144 questions (at last count) that could appear on the naturalization test/interview.

Typically, only 10 or 12 get asked.

To pass, you must answer 6 (of 10) or 7 (of 12) correctly.

Answer 3

I think you have to answer all of them as there are only like 10 being asked . well for us that is as we have special treatment being a military dependent . i think for regular people they have 20 questions . if you answer them wrong they will ask you to verify that you have made that answer and give you a chance to correct it . but then again it could be case to case basis . some interviewers are very nice and lenient some are just trying to be a pain in the a$$ ....

Answer 4

You don't need any right if you live in the U.S. illegally ^_-
