<p><svar a="all" v="CR00A403 CR00A404 CR00A405"><span class="em">Question 4: Place of Birth</span><br /><br />With this question, the place of birth of each person is to be determined, understanding that it as where their mother resided when the person was born. Do not confuse the place of birth with the hospital or place where the birth occurred.<br /><br />[To the right of the text is a form.]<br /><br />The possible situations are:<br /><br /><span class="em">In this same canton</span>: if at the moment the reference person was born, their mother resided in this same canton where this person currently resides.<br /><br /><span class="em">In another canton</span>: in whose case you should write down the canton or province of the usual residence of the mother at the moment of birth of the person. If the person does not know exactly, write down any reference, like neighborhood or district, that permits determining later the correct canton.<br /><br /><span class="em">In another country</span>: Write down the country of birth when the person was born abroad. Additionally the year of arrival to the country is requested. You should not forget question 4a. It refers to the respective person and not to their mother.<br /></svar>
