Interviewer instructions
<span class="h2">15.5 Section V. Other income</span>
<br />This section is composed of one question, which you apply once you have finished capturing the information from Section IV. International migration.</p>

<p>If you used more than one questionnaire to request information from people, record the data from this section in the last one.</p>

<p>Before asking question 1. Other income, read the introductory text: "Speaking of another topic..."</p>

<p><span class="em">1. Other income</span>
<br />This question identifies housing units where at least one of its members receives money from a person residing in another housing unit inside or outside the country, from government programs, or from retirement or pension.</p>

<p>Read the question and each of the options that complement it, listen to the answer, and circle a code for each of them.</p>

<p>The money received in these options is different because:</p>

<p><span class="pg">[p. 425]</span><div class="i1">- It is money available for use, which means the possibility of being used by the family when required.<br />- It does not have to be returned or paid.<br />- It has already been received at least once and there is a promise to receive it again, regardless of the periodicity with which it is received.</div><p>[Figure omitted: image with text]</p>

<p>It does not include loans, credits, financing, gifts, in-kind support (school supplies, groceries, etc.), or money received by other people in the same housing unit.</p>

<p>Some of the programs that provide cash support are: Becas para el Bienestar Benito Juárez, Jóvenes Escribiendo el Futuro, PROSPERA Programa de Inclusión Social, Programa Jóvenes Construyendo el Futuro, Programa para el Bienestar de las Personas Adultas Mayores, Programa Pensión para el Bienestar de las Personas con Discapacidad, Programa de Apoyo Alimentario, Programa Producción para el Bienestar, PROAGRO, among others.</p>

<p>People who receive retirement benefits are those who have completed the number of years of work or have reached the maximum age to obtain the economic benefit from the IMSS, ISSSTE, or the company for which they worked. The pension is also a financial benefit received by workers who were permanently disabled from working by the IMSS or ISSSTE because they had a work-related accident or illness; it also includes pensions obtained for widowhood, alimony, or orphanhood, as well as those received from other countries.</p>

<p>The question of other income is presented to the census manager as follows:</p>
