Interviewer instructions

This question is put to each member of the household. The place of birth is to be marked by code (from 1 to 18 for the Governorate if the person was born in Iraq). In the first column mark the code of the Governorate; in the second column write down 1 if it is in an urban and 2 if in a rural area. To decide whether the area is urban or rural depends on its characterization at the time of his birth. For instance, if an area was rural at the time of birth of a person but has become urban today the area is marked RURAL, that is, as it was at the time of birth. If birth was outside Iraq, write down the code 90 in the first column and leave the second column blank.
