Utah Citizenship Test Answers (2026)

Quick answers

- What is the capital of your state?

Utah’s U.S. senators
Like every state, Utah has two U.S. senators. The officer asks for one name, so pick the one that is easier for you to say and remember.
- John Curtis (Republican)
- Mike Lee (Republican)
Utah’s U.S. representatives
Utah has 4 members of the House of Representatives. Each one represents a congressional district, so your answer depends on your home address. The fastest way to find yours is to enter your ZIP code on house.gov.
Find your representative by ZIP code
| District | Representative | Party |
|---|---|---|
| District 1 | Blake D. Moore | Republican |
| District 2 | Celeste Maloy | Republican |
| District 3 | Mike Kennedy | Republican |
| District 4 | Burgess Owens | Republican |
All House seats are on the ballot on November 3, 2026, and the new terms start on January 3, 2027. You only need the name, not the district number or party.
Governor of Utah
The governor of Utah is Spencer Cox.
On the 2025 test this is one of the 20 questions for applicants who qualify for the 65/20 exception, so older applicants should know it well.
Capital of Utah
The capital of Utah is Salt Lake City.
If an answer changes before your interview
Officers expect the name of the person in office on the day of your interview. Elected officials can change after elections, resignations and appointments, so check the answers again the week of your interview. USCIS also posts changes at uscis.gov/citizenship/testupdates.
Last checked September 27, 2026. Sources: senate.gov, the Clerk of the U.S. House (clerk.house.gov) and the National Governors Association (nga.org).

Common questions
Do I need to know both senators from Utah?
No. The question asks for one of your state’s senators, so one correct name is enough.
Do I need to know my representative’s party or district number?
No. The name is enough. The party and district are listed here only to help you find the right person.
I just moved to Utah. Which answers do I give?
Give the answers for the place where you live on the day of your interview. You must live in the state or USCIS district for at least 3 months before you file, so your new address should match your application.
Are these questions on the 65/20 test?
On the 2025 test, only the governor question is part of the 20 questions for 65/20 applicants. On the 2008 test, the senator and capital questions are on the 65/20 list.
