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">Question 9: 5 years ago (April 1, 2014), where did [the respondent] actually reside permanently?</span>
<br />The actual permanent place of residence is understood as the place where DTDT eats and resides regularly (according to the defined concepts of NKTTTT).</p>

<p>For people who 5 years ago, i.e. April 1, 2014, were studying, working abroad, visiting relatives, or traveling abroad within the prescribed time limits, their actual permanent place of residence is still identified as Vietnam, in the household where they are identified as NKTTTT. Thus, in order to have accurate information for this question, DTV needs to ask supplemental questions such as time, the purpose of traveling abroad, etc.</p>

<p>Cases identified as being "abroad" 5 years ago may include: People who 5 years ago obtained citizenship/settled abroad or who 5 years ago studied or worked abroad beyond the prescribed time limits but now actually reside permanently in Vietnam.
