Interviewer instructions
<span class="em">Columns P1 to P12 for All persons</span>
<br /><span class="em">Columns P1 to P12 are to be accomplished for all household members regardless of age.</span></p>
<p><span class="em">P9 and P10-Citizenship</span>
<br />Citizenship is defined as the legal nationality of a person. A citizen is a legal national of the country at the time of census, while an alien is a non-national of the country. Data on citizenship allows the classification of the population into (a) citizens and (b) aliens. These data are valuable in the study of problems relating to the legal status and civil rights of immigrants.
<br />A person's citizenship depends on the country to which he/she owes legal allegiance or where he/she exercises the right of suffrage.
<br />Ask the question in P9:" Is [the respondent]a citizen of the Philippines?" for all persons. This question determines who among the members of the household citizens of the Philippines are and who are not. If the household member is a citizen only of the Philippines, write "X" in the box beside code "1" for Yes, and skip to P11. However, if the household member is a citizen of the Philippines and at the same time a citizen of another country, write "X" in the box beside code "2", meaning he/she has a dual citizenship. Then ask the question in P10 "What country is [the respondent]a citizen of?" Moreover, if the household member is not a citizen of the Philippines, write "X" in the box beside code "3" and ask the question in P10.
<br />For persons with dual alien citizenship, inquire which one should be reported and enter the code for the preferred country of citizenship. However, for those with Filipino citizenship and alien citizenship, write "X" in the box for Yes, Dual Citizenship in P9. Specify the other country of citizenship in P10 and enter the appropriate code for the country of citizenship. The codes are listed in the Codebook.
<br />For persons whose citizenship is other than those provided in the Codebook, write on the space provided the name of the country where they owe legal allegiance to.
<br />If the person being interviewed hesitates to answer this question, remind him/they that the information shall be held strictly confidential and no reference to individual persons will be made
