[For example, citizens working or temporarily living with relatives in South Africa or studying abroad]. Write down the names of such persons and record the details of their relationship to the head of household [use answer codes as in column P3] sex [use answer codes in column P4] and age. Ask duration since last visit, record the answer in years and months. Then ask the name of the country where they are [see column P7 for answer codes, if country is not listed, write the name of the country]. Finally ask for the reasons why they are away, see the answer codes list in the next column. Enter appropriate answer code. If no member of the household is absent from Botswana enter '0' in the columns on line 1.
