Interviewer instructions
Questions 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 are asked to all people whatever their age.




3.3 Age

The question makes reference to the age that people have in completed years.

When a person is younger than a year, (is hours, days or weeks old or is still not a year), write down 000 in the boxes.

If an informant does not remember the age of any person, help to think about any event (marriage, birth of a child, school year taken, among others) or ask him or her to consult the birth certificate, voter credential, driver's license or other document where the date of birth appears, to be able to calculate the age.

[p 72]

If an answer is not precise, investigate the age in complete years, asking for the date of birth.

[Below the text is a filled out form.]

If they tell you the year of birth, help the informant calculate the age.
