Interviewer instructions
Question Four.

114. A person's date of birth shall be filled out as it is written in their registration number. (for example: 1940 -- 2 -- 25). However, the age shall be taken as the years aged. Age shall not be added up even if there is only a few days are left before the actual birth day. For example: if a child is 12 years and 11 months and 25 days old his/her age shall be filled out as being 12 not13. The age for young children up to 12 months shall be filled out as 0.

115. People ages shall be defined through the following method: Age for people who were born before January 5 of each year shall be defined by subtracting their year of birth from 1989. For example: if Baldan was born January 3, 1939 then he will be 50 years old (1989 -- 1939). Age for people who were born after January 5 of each year shall be defined by deducting their year of birth from 1989, then subtracting 1 from the remainder. For example: if Dash was born January 10, 1943 then he will be 45 years old (1989 -- 1943 - 1). (For defining age please, refer to the Table in the Appendix 5).

116. Table 1 shall be used to determine the age for old people who are not able to say their DOB but knows them in the old lunar calendar.
