Interviewer instructions
Question 6: Year of arrival to country

6. In what year did [name] arrive to live in Costa Rica?

_ _ _ _ If the year is unknown, ask:


Did he/she arrive to live in Costa Rica
[] 1 before 1980
[] 2 between 1980 and 1989
[] 3 between 1990 and 1999
[] 4 in 2000 or later


You must ask this question to people born in another country.

You must ask for the exact year in which the person arrived to live in the country. If the response is known, then register it in the corresponding boxes.

[p. 142]

If, on the other hand, the informant does not know nor remember the exact year of arrival to the country, leave these spaces blank and proceed to ask the question by periods.

If the person entered the country various times, you must register the year or the most recent period, based on the one in which the person decided to establish his/her fixed residency.

Keep in mind that, even though the question provides two ways of obtaining the answer, only one of these should have a response.
