Interviewer instructions
Section 2: Birthplace and residence
[All persons]

These questions are very important for the main reasons that they:

(1) Will establish the "de jure" population on which the final Census tabulations will be based. The "de jure" count identifies persons at their usual place of residence.

(2) Are important for studying movement of the population between parishes in Jamaica. Movements apply only to those taking place between parishes. Residence abroad is not regarded as a move for the purpose of studying internal migration.




[Questions 2.7-2.10 are relevant to persons born in Jamaica who have lived abroad for five years or more continuously]



5.64 Question 2.9: Year returned

Record here the four digits of the year the respondent returned to live in Jamaica from the last country that he/she lived in for five or more years continuously.
