Interviewer instructions
<svar a="all" v="CL02A026">Question 1<br /><br />"Collective Dwelling": Mark this alternative when, for example, you unexpectedly come across a boarding house (collective dwelling) that doesn't appear on the F1 [The F1 is a census form which indicates the geographic area to be enumerated by each enumerator.]. In this case, you mark it and continue to Sections D and E. [These instructions refer to a graphic of question 1b on the census form.]<br /><br />Remember that collective dwellings that are recorded on the F1 you do not have to enumerate or record on the summary sheet, because they belong to another area of the census. [These instructions refer to a graphic of question 1b on the census form.]<br /><br /><span class="pg">[p. 28]</span><br /><br />For any place that has served as lodging and does not correspond to any of the distinct types of dwelling, you should fill in the oval other type of private dwelling. [These instructions refer to a graphic of question 1a on the census form.]<br /><br />Remember that dwellings are made of different materials, are of different sizes, and may be fixed or mobile.<br /></svar>
