This regards finding out the amount of time that the person has been living in the federal entity (be it state, territory, or federal district), not in the municipality, delegation, city, town or villa, etc., in which the interview is being carried out.
For those people who have lived their whole lives in this federal entity, the circle in front of "always" should be marked.
For people who have lived less than one year in that federal entity or state, the circle in front of "less than one year" should be marked.
For people who have lived in this federal entity for one year or more, write, in the corresponding space, the number of years that they have lived in the federal entity.
The people who have "not" always lived in that state should be asked: "in which state of the republic or foreign country did you live before?" clearly write the name of this state or foreign country.
Some people could have changed from entity or country of residence more than one time; in that case, write the name of the most recent entity or country in which they lived before.
If a person, at some period in their lives, went to live in some other state or country (not including vacations or trips), and returned to this state, the amount of time that has passed since they returned to live in the state should be considered the time of residence; the name of the state or of the foreign country where they lived immediately before should be written.
