Four civics questions depend on where you live. Here is how to answer each one
in Alaska, using the instructions USCIS prints with the questions and names taken from official
government sources on October 20, 2026.
Elections on November 3, 2026Many Senate seats, every House seat and many governorships are on the ballot. Winners take office in January 2027 or on the date their state sets, so some names on this page may change soon. You must name whoever holds the office on the day of your interview — check the official links below before you go.
Who is one of your state's U.S. senators now? (2025 #23 · 2008 #20)
Either of your two senators: Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan.
Name your U.S. representative. (2025 #29 · 2008 #23)
Alaska has one at-large seat, so everyone in Alaska has the same representative: Nicholas J. Begich III.
Who is the governor of your state now? (2025 #61 · 2008 #43)
Mike Dunleavy.
What is the capital of your state? (2025 #62 · 2008 #44)
Juneau.
The senator and capital questions are also among the 65/20 questions on the 2008 version
(and the governor question on the 2025 version), so applicants studying only the 20 starred
questions still need these answers.
Your state is set to Alaska for this practice test, so the "capital of your state" question is graded against it.
