Interviewer instructions

Q5.26 to Q5.28 ask about how household behavior might have changed with the receipt of remittances from former household members currently living outside of the household. Information is collected here about whether the household opened a bank account or built a dwelling after the receipt of remittances from former household members who are currently working outside of the household.

Please note that these questions are linked to questions answered before. When asking the question kick-off from the response given before. For example you do not want to ask 5.26 if previously the answer given was that the household has no member with a bank account.
