Interviewer instructions
Question 1. What is [the person]'s relationship with the head of household?

The point of interest is the family relationship between members of the household and the head of household, and not the relationship of the members amongst themselves.

Mark an "X" next to the option stated by the informant.

If the informant states that one of the persons in the household is a cousin, niece, nephew, aunt, uncle or other relative of the head of household, mark option 12, "Other relative".

If there are other people in the household who are not related to the head of household but who should be enumerated with this household, mark option 12, "No family relationship".

If domestic employees meet the definition of permanent resident, mark option 14, "Domestic employee".

If in question 1 (type of dwelling) of section II, "Dwelling information", any option from 11-19 is marked, mark option 15 or 16, as appropriate.
