Interviewer instructions
<span class="em">1. Other income</span>
<br />This question identifies houses where some members receive money from people who do not live in the house, from government programs, retirement, or pension.</p>

<p>[Figures are omitted]</p>

<p>Read the question and all its options, listen to the answer and circle the corresponding code to each option.</p>

<p>Because this question refers to money, record in the column "yes" those persons who receive money; while register in the column "no" those persons who receive help in-kind, such as pantries, school supplies, or clothes.</p>

<p>Money received in those options is different from other types of income because:</p>
<div class="i1">[] This money should be available for use, which means the possibility of being used by the family when required.<br />[] This money has not being returned or paid.<br />[] This money has already been received at least once and there is the promise of continuing to receive.<br />[] The frequency with which this money is received does not matter.</div><p>Some of the programs that provide cash support are:</p>
<div class="i1">[] <span class="lang">Prospera</span>, formerly called <span class="lang">Oportunidades</span>.<br />[] <span class="lang">Adultos mayores</span> (elderly adults) or pension for elderly adults.<br />[] Food support for children and family.<br />[] Scholarships.<br />[] <span class="lang">Sin hambre</span> (no hunger) card.<br />[] <span class="lang">Procampo</span>.<br />[] Agricultural workers.</div><p>People who receive retirement are those who fulfilled the working years or the age established and now they receive monthly money from the IMSS, ISSSTE, PEMEX, Defense, or Marine.</p>

<p>Money received from pensions can be for disabled workers, either temporary or permanently disabled by an illness or a work accident, or also pensions can be given by widowhood, food, or orphanage.
