Interviewer instructions
<svar a="all" v="UY06A062 UY06A063 UY06A064"><span class="em">7. Regarding this dwelling, is this household [in any of the following categories]? </span><br /><br />This question is asked to determine the tenure status of the dwelling occupied by the household and, among other things, to determine the share of household income that is committed to housing costs. For owners, we distinguish between those how have paid in full for the dwelling and those who are still paying for the dwelling. <br /><br />The question also intends to identify informal settlements, investigating dwelling and land owernship.<br /><br />Non-paying occupants refer to the cases in which the occupants are not the owners of the dwelling or the terrain, nor are they renters; three types are distinguished:<br /><ul class="b1">
<li>Occupant with dependency relationship: those who occupy the dwelling for labor reasons and therefore possess an income in-kind.</li>

<li>Free occupant (dwelling was ceded by owner): those cases in which the dwelling was directly ceded by the owner, for example, the parents who give a dwelling to their children to live.</li>

<li>Occupant without permission of the owner, commonly called "squatters".</li>
</ul><br /><br />For each type of housing tenure, the expense associated with the occupation of the dwelling or the rental value, as approproiate. The expense associated with the occupation of the dwelling is the sum of the share of the home or land purchase, or the rental fee if respondent is tenant. <br /><br />The rental value is the estimated amount that the household (not tenant) would pay if renting the dwelling. The imputation of the rental value of owned homes is a common practice in household surveys conducted internationally to allow comparison between tenants and home owners, with the understanding that although ownership does not provide a monetary income, it does provide a service that can be valued by the net income to be derived from rent. This consideration is also valid for the owners of various durable goods but, perhaps due to its lesser quantitative importance, the discussion around the topic hasn't acquired the same relevance.<br /><br />It is important to keep in mind that this question must only be asked in the urban areas.<br /><br />Once the option to question 7 is selected, question MV4 is asked that is to the right of the response to question 7, in the same box.<br /></svar>
