Completion instructions
Living quarter questionnaire
Who completes the questionnaire?
Questions no. 1 to 3, inclusive, are completed by the Census Enumerator.
The remaining questions in the questionnaire (housing conditions) will be completed by the owner of the dwelling or by a person residing there and qualified to do so. If you are unable or do not know how to complete the questionnaire, wait for the arrival of the enumerator responsible for collecting the questionnaires who will provide you with the assistance you require.
Question 4 - Telephone / Cell phone:
Question 5 - Does the dwelling have electricity?
Question 6 - Water supply system:
When the dwelling has piped running water outside (yard, etc.) but not in any of the rooms comprising it (kitchen, water closet or bathroom), it will be considered as having running water in the building, but outside the dwelling.
When there is no piped water in the dwelling or in the building and the household resorts to other supply sources, various alternative sources may be used. In this case, the source which is most frequently used to obtain water for cooking and hygiene should be considered.
Question 7 - Toilet facilities:
Question 8 - Bathing facilities:
Do not consider the mere existence of a washbasin as constituting a bath or shower (whether connected to a drainage system or not), even when located in a room separate from the dwelling, or a makeshift installation in suspended recipients, which, filled manually, are used as a shower
Question 9 - Sewage disposal system:
Public sewage system means the drainage system (for example in a city), which collects all the waste and channels it along a specific path. Septic tank is a specially structured receptacle enabling certain processes of disinfection, which, by means of a suitable pipeline, receives wastewater from one or a small number of dwellings.
Question 10 - Type of heating:
Question 11 - Availability of kitchen:
Kitchenette means a small space within a room, separated usually by a small counter or similar, designed for preparing food. This situation is found mainly in urban zones and in smaller flats.
In dwellings with a kitchen, it is necessary to consider the size of the kitchen since it is classified according to whether it has an area of more than 4 m2 or less than 4 m2.
Question 12 - Number of rooms in the dwelling:
Attention:
You should Not consider the following as rooms: kitchen (even if used for other purposes), bathroom, pantry, storage room, balcony (even if enclosed by any type of structure), conservatory, hall and corridors. Rooms that are used exclusively for an economic activity should not be counted. For example: in a dwelling consisting of five rooms in which a doctor's surgery occupies two rooms, only three rooms should be counted.
Question 13 - Do you have mortgage or loan resulting from the purchase of this dwelling ?
The dwelling is the property of people who occupy it and purchased it through a bank loan or other financial arrangements not completely paid; here the individual immediately becomes the owner of the dwelling, although the dwelling is generally mortgaged as collateral for the loan, with the financial charges consisting of the payment of principal and interest due. Thus, the monthly payment will include the repayment of principal and interest due.
Tick "No" if the dwelling is free from encumbrance or charges, regardless of how the owner acquired it (purchase, inheritance or other).
This charge must refer to the month immediately preceding the census moment.
Question 14 - Please indicate the size to which corresponds the monthly mortgage or loan charge:
Attention:
If the charge has not yet been defined by the financing entity, indicate what you estimate it to be.
Question 15 - If you are a tenant, please indicate the form of lease:
3- or 5-year fixed-term contract - a contract in which at the end of the term (3 or 5 years), the amount of the rent may be renegotiated by the parties. If the parties fail to come to an agreement, the contract lapses and the tenant is required to leave the dwelling.
Renewable contract of indefinite duration - a contract which is automatically renewed and only terminates if the tenant wishes to leave the dwelling.
Council or subsidized rent contract - a contract in which the tenant is a public body and in which the amount of the rent was reduced in view of the need for social aid by the household.
If the dwelling is let to an individual who, in turn, lets it to a third person through payment of a rent, the dwelling is said to be sublet.
Cases involving the voluntary conveyance of the dwelling, (for example: a father owns a dwelling and transfers it free of charge to his son), as well as cases in which the occupancy of the dwelling is usually associated with a contract in which consideration is either directly or indirectly assigned to it, subject to the performance of a task (for example: doormen, watchmen, etc.), should be included under other situations.
Question 16 - period of the lease contract:
Question 17 - if you pay rent, please indicate the size to which corresponds the monthly amount:
If the rent is not paid on a monthly basis, you will have to convert it to the corresponding monthly amount.
Attention:
The repayment of residential mortgage loans or the monthly payments paid for property built for purchase, are not considered rents. In this case, you should only have answered questions nos. 13 and 14.
Question 18 - Dwelling ownership:
First or second-generation ascendants or descendants - parents, children, grandparents or grandchildren.
