Interviewer instructions

Section 1 - Identification

5.13 General
Questions 1 to 6 provide information for the purpose of identifying each individual and should be completed for every member of the household.

5.14 Question 1 - Identifying Number
This identification number is comprised of thirteen digits, all of which must be completed on every questionnaire.

The first ten of these digits will be identical on every questionnaire to be completed for the E.D., and will be found on the front of the map folder. You must fill in every box of the ten digits as given.
The last three digits of the identifying number relate to the housing unit number and will be identical for all members of the housing unit. Here again, in filling in the housing unit number, all three boxes must be entered. Thus, a housing unit number could be 001, 002, 003 and so on.
