Question 17. What is your degree of kinship to the household head?


(For those not living in this home continuously, mark the "Visitor" box. In places where a household is not constituted, do not ask this question.)

Whether they are relatives of the household head or not, for those not living continuously in this home, the "Visitor" box is to be marked. For individuals in places where households are not constituted (such as a military post, a jail, a hospital, a train, a boat, a bus, a bus terminal, a hostel, a school, a dormitory, a hotel, etc.), this question is not to be asked of those individuals present.

For people being administered the census, an "X" is to be placed into the box corresponding to the degree of kinship with the household head.

Explained below are points requiring attention when asking the question about the degree of kinship to the household head:

1. An "X" mark is to be placed into the "Visitor" box for those people who are not household members and who, at the time the census, are being administered the census together with the household (whether related by kinship to the household head or not).

[An example in the original document has been omitted here]

2. For those lacking any kinship tie to the household head, but living in the same home, an "X" is to be placed into the box for the "Other" option. For example; a domestic servant, guard, gardener and other such people.

3. For those living together with the household, but whose kinship relation to the household head is other than "Spouse", "Son", "Daughter", "Father", "Mother", "Brother", "Father-in-law", "Mother-in-law", "Daughter-in-law", "Son-in-law", and "Grandchild" (For example: for a maternal uncle, maternal aunt, paternal uncle, sister-in-law, cousin, an "X" is to be marked in the box for the option "Other" option).

[An example in the original document has been omitted here]

4. People living together, whether bound by blood ties or not, who are living together for education, work, and other reasons, are to be considered as a household, and the person among these people declaring him/herself to be household head is to be accepted as being the household head. For other individuals, an "X" is to be placed into the applicable boxes, based on their degree of kinship.
