Interviewer instructions

Ask to identify whether this member was born at the present residence place. The
present residence place is the residence within the current district/provincial town. When asking,
interviewer has to refer the specific names of the district of [current residence] so that the
respondent can identify his/her residence scope.
Note, only if the individual is currently in a different district is it considered to be a place
other than the birthplace. It is possible that person was born in another house of the same district,
and is currently living in the district but not in that house, they should still be recorded as being
born in the current residence.
For a household head absent for over 6 months and those who work far away from home
for over 6 months but are household members (2 exceptions in the definition for household
members ) then the [Current residence] is regulated as the place where the household is living,
not the place where they are working
