Parliamentary elections were held in the Federated States of Micronesia on 8 March 2011, alongside a three-part referendum. As there were no political parties, all 34 candidates ran as independents. For the first time in the country's history, two women ran for election, both in Chuuk State. However, neither was elected.

The three referendum questions were held on extending the congressional term length to four years for all members (at the time, 10 of the 14 members were only elected for two-year terms), allowing the holding of dual citizenship, and whether a Constitutional Convention should be elected to revise the constitution. Only the latter proposal was approved. However, the convention didn't get elected.
