Interviewer instructions
Section III: Questions related to households and dwellings
Attention! Section III is to be filled out for places where a household [housing unit] is constituted.
Questions 1 to 12 in this section are to be asked of the household head or someone able to answer in his/her place.
Question 3. How many people are now present in this house (home), including guests?
Regardless of whether or not they belong to the household, the total number of people at home at the moment of the census, including guests, is to be written down. The number entered in response to this question must be the same or one less (if the household head is not at home) than the number of people in the household list in Section III Question 12.
The household head or other household members not at home on census day are not to be included in this number.
Question 4. How many guests are now present in your house, whether they are relatives or not?
Attention! Even if they are relatives, those people not living at home (on a regular basis is implied, but not explicitly stated) are guests.
This question seeks to reveal the number of people who do not belong to the household. In this context, those people, whether relatives or not, who are temporarily at home at the moment of the census because they are visiting, are there for work, for health or for other reasons, are to be designated as a "Guest". The total number of these guests is to be entered in numeric form into the pertinent boxes. If at the time of the census there are no guests, an "X" is to be entered into the "None" box.
Guest[s]: People, whether relatives or not, who do not belong to the household, and are at home at the time of the census.
Question 5. Of members of this household, not at home at this time
how many people are within the country?
how many people are abroad?
For this question, the number of this household's members who are temporarily absent from home at the time of the census, either within the country and/or abroad, for any reason (education, practical training, for a conference, seminar, military service, medical treatment, jail, sport activities, touring and traveling, work (seasonal worker, temporary assignment, long-distance drivers, road workers, etc.), are to be respectively entered in numeric form into the applicable boxes. (Those who, instead of being present where their household is located, are guests in another dwelling or are on duty at the time of the census, are to be regarded as being inside the country.) If at the time of the census, none of the household members are "Inside the country" and/or "Abroad", an "X" is to be placed into the "None" box.
Question 12. Beginning with the household head, indicate the names and surnames of everyone now present in this house (dwelling).
(Even if the household is not at home, write that person's name and surname on the first line. After the household head, write in the names and surnames of household members beginning with the oldest. Finally, write the names and surnames of guests, beginning with the oldest one.)
The names and surnames of those present in the household at the time of the census are to be formed into a list in the order specified below:
The household head's name and surname is to be written into the first row of the list in question 12, even if he/she is not at home.
After the household head, the names and surnames of individuals present at home, are to be entered beginning with those who are household members and in order of age, beginning with the ones who are oldest.
After writing in the household members, the names and surnames of those guests temporarily present at that home (even if relatives), are to be written in, beginning with the oldest.
This question was designed to provide room for writing in the names and surnames of 28 people. If there are more than 28 people at home, then, on a subsequent household questionnaire, Section I and II are to be left blank and the listing of the individuals' names and surnames is are to be continued in Section III question 12, by replacing the starting "Individual sequential number" of 1 that is on this page with a starting number of "29".
Attention! Questions in Section IV regarding individual characteristics are to be asked for each person on this list, based on their order in this list. That is why the number of people listed in Question 12 should be the same as the number of forms being filled out for each individual in Section IV.
