Only for women 12 years of age and older</span><br /><br />Questions 20 to 23 should only be asked of women 12 years of age and older, including unmarried women. These questions are not asked when the person being enumerated is a man. Instead cross out part D of the Form with a diagonal line.<br /><br />These questions are of great importance for the demographic analysis. Take special care to ask them verbatim without excluding unmarried women.<br /></svar></p>

<p><svar a="all" v="BO92A438 BO92A439"><span class="h3">Question 23. In what month and year was your last son (daughter) born alive born?</span><br /><br />All women 12 years of age and older who have had any son (daughter) born alive will be asked for the date on which their last child was born, whether they are alive at the time of the Census or have passed away. Record the month in written form in the spaces provided for month, and for the year, the last two digits.<br /><br />Example: April 89, March 90, January 92, etc.<br /><br /><span class="em">Important:</span> That this piece of information be obtained with the greatest possible precision, primarily in the case of children who were born in recent years, for example: in 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, or 1992.<br /><br />There may be some cases where the mother doesn't remember either the month or year, or both of these pieces of information, in which case you should clarify in observations and estimate this data as closely as possible.<br /></svar>
