Updated · Names checked October 20, 2026 against official U.S. government sources
Four civics questions depend on where you live. Here is how to answer each one
in the U.S. Virgin Islands, 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.

How to answer each question
Question (2025 / 2008 number)
Your answer in the U.S. Virgin Islands
Who is one of your state's U.S. senators now? (2025 #23 · 2008 #20)
Say that U.S. Virgin Islands has no U.S. senators — USCIS tells residents of the territories to answer this way.
Name your U.S. representative. (2025 #29 · 2008 #23)
You may name U.S. Virgin Islands's nonvoting Delegate, Stacey E. Plaskett, or say that U.S. Virgin Islands has no (voting) representative in Congress. Both are accepted.
Who is the governor of your state now? (2025 #61 · 2008 #43)
Albert Bryan Jr..
What is the capital of your state? (2025 #62 · 2008 #44)
Charlotte Amalie — USCIS tells territory residents to name the capital of the territory.
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.
