The de facto state should not be confused with the civil state. That is -- for example -- if the enumerated person has the civil state of "Widow" but at the moment of the Census lives together with a companion, you should mark the marital state "United".<br /><br />The following questions of this part try to ascertain the occupational situation of the person you are enumerating.<br /></svar>
