P14 Mother's Usual Residence at Person's Birth
Data on mother's usual residence at person's birth are used as an indicator of the ethnic origin of the population. It can also be used to provide a measure of life-time migration.
All persons must have an entry in this column. If at the time of the person's birth his mother was usually residing in the same municipality or city where the person is enumerated, enter code 8 in the code box. However, if the mother was usually residing in another city/municipality, enter the name of the city/municipality and province of which she was a usual resident at the time of the person's birth on the space provided.
If the mother's usual residence at the time of birth was in a foreign country/ enter code 7 in the code box.
In case a child is an adopted child, report here the usual residence of his/her real mother, if known. However, if the respondent does not know the usual residence of the real mother at the time of the child's birth, enter code 9 for unknown.
In case a municipality/province was divided into two separate and independent municipalities/provinces, the PRESENT geographic location of the place of mother's usual residence at person's birth will prevail.
Examples:
a. Juan Hernandez and his mother are enumerated in Sara, Iloilo. His mother has lived in this municipality and province since her marriage to Juan's father. Therefore, when Juan was born his mother was usually residing in Sara, Iloilo. Hence, you should enter code 8 in P14.
b. Evelyn Rodriguez, together with her parents and sisters, is enumerated in Calape, Bohol where she now resides. At the time of her birth, her mother was usually residing in Clarin, Bohol.
When Evelyn was born, her mother was residing in a municipality (Clarin) different from the municipality where Evelyn is enumerated (Calape). Therefore, the entry in P14 should be Clarin, Bohol.
c. Julio Iglesias and his family are enumerated in Agno, Pangasinan where they reside. Before Julio's birth his mother went and stayed temporarily in Dagupan City, Pangasinan to deliver Julio, and a few weeks thereafter, returned home. In this case code 8 will be entered because Julio Iglesias is enumerated in Agno, Pangasinan and his mother's usual place of residence when he was born was also Agno, Pangasinan (not Dagupan City).
d. Luisa Sarmiento and her mother are enumerated in Plaridel, Quezon. Luisa's mother was a usual resident of this place when Luisa was born. But during Luisa's birth, Plaridel was only a barrio of Atimonan, Quezon. The code for Luisa should be 8 (same municipality) because the usual residence of Luisa's mother during her birth and their present residence did not change.
