For the House of Representatives, a candidate must be at least 25 years old, a citizen of the U. S. for at least 7 years and a resident of the state the candidate would represent. For the Senate, a candidate must be at least 30 years old, a citizen of the U. S. for at least 9 years and a resident of the state the candidate would represent. State law dictates the manner of the elections, such as requirements to be placed on the ballot and filing for office. Check with the state or local election official for state requirements.

No, 30 years is the minimum age for a member of the U.S. Senate. For membership in the U.S. House of Representatives the minimum age is 25.
