Chapter IV - Data on Persons Registered in Households
44. All persons in the household will be recorded in this chapter, regardless whether they were present in the household or absent at the census reference point - "0" hour on the night of January, 6 to 7, 1992, or whether persons had left the household temporarily or for a longer period to work, to study, or for some other reason. Persons temporarily present in the household at the census reference point will not be recorded in this chapter, but in Chapter V.
Q. 11 Marital status of the person
58. For all persons, regardless of sex or age, indicate the stated marital status in the corresponding box, namely:
Code 1: unmarried (single)
Code 2: married
Code 3: widowed
Code 4: divorced
The code of unmarried will be marked only for persons who were never married. Children below 14 years of age are also included in this code, excepting those female persons who are legally married with a special age license, divorced or widowed.
In the case of separated married couples in which the husband and wife have different legal residences, whether living alone or with someone else, register the marital status declared by each of the spouses.
