Interviewer instructions

11. Question 4

4. Marital Status

[] 1 Married
[] 2 Divorced
[] 3 Widow/er
[] 4 Single

Ask the person for his marital status. His answer is sufficient. Do not ask for any documentation to verify his answer.

Do not determine his marital status according to your impression. For example, if a couple lives in the apartment, do not write that they are married without getting the answer from them.

For an Agunah ["chained" woman -- a woman bound in marriage by a husband who refuses to grant a divorce or who is missing and not proved dead] answer "married".
