Interviewer instructions
<span class="h2">Part V: Instructions on how to question and record information on the census form</span></p>

<p><span class="h3">Part 1: Information about members of the household</span>
<br />Part 1 of the Census form consists of 41 questions, numbered sequentially from Question 1 to Question 41.</p>

<p>The respondent is the head of the household or a person knowledgeable about members of the household. For information on employment and birth history of women, DTV needs to interview DTDT face-to-face and collect information. In addition, for other information about members of the household, if the head of the household or the information provider is not knowledgeable, DTV also needs to interview DTDT face-to-face and record the information.</p>

<p><span class="em">Test 6 (KT6)</span>
<br />The test question is intended to identify female members of the household from 10 to 49 years old (female, born from April 1969 to March 2009) to ask Question 34; for the remaining cases, DTV asks the next person.</p>

<p><span class="pg">[p.68]</span></p>

<p>In case the month of birth cannot be identified (the month of birth in Question 4 is recorded as "98"), DTV proceeds to Question 34 for women born between 1970 and 2009.</p>

<p><span class="em">Question 38: Month and year of most recent birth according to the solar calendar?</span>
<br />The most recent birth is the "live birth" of DTDT closest to the time of the census, regardless of whether the child is alive or deceased, living in the same household with DTDT or in a different household. The way to ask and write Question 38 is the same as that for Question 4 "The month and year of birth according to the solar calendar" (see instructions on how to ask and record for Question 4).
