Interviewer instructions

Question No. 3: What is your age in years completed?

Through this question is known the structure of the population by specific age and groups of ages.
It refers to the age of an enumerated person at the moment of the census, that is, at the last birthday.

[p. 68]

Write down, with two digits, the age in complete years of the person.
If the person is 99 years old or more write down "98" in the corresponding spaces; and if the person is less than 10 years old, put a 0 in front of it [the age].
Immediately ask the day, month and year in which the enumerated person was born.
If any doubt about answering the question is observed, try to obtain the exact age through their personal identity card, social security card or other documents that contain this information.
When the person does not know their age and does not have personal identity documentation, estimate the age based on their age when their first son was born and put next to the age the letter E (estimated).
