Interviewer instructions
Question 4
Age (in completed year) Information on age should be recorded by completed years. Even when there are only a few days left to reach to complete year, the enumerator should not raise the current year of the respondent. The age of a child under 1 year should be recorded as "OO". Information on age will be estimated directly by asking the respondent his or her birth date: year, month and day. After asking the birth date (year, month, day) of a respondent, the enumerator should compare it with 5th January 1999 and if does not match the estimation, then re-ask the respondent. In the case the birth year is known, the enumerator should fill out the respondent's age from appendix N5. See annex 5A, if the respondent does not know his/her age in accordance with a calendar estimation, but knows the age according to the lunar new year.
