[Questions P00-P20 were asked for persons in both the household and non-household populations.]

[P20a and P20b were asked for females age 12 years or older.]

P20b. Children surviving
How many children ever born alive to [the respondent] are still surviving (living with you or elsewhere)?

P20b. Number of children surviving (answer for females 12 years and older): How many children ever born alive to [name] are still surviving (living with you or elsewhere)?

This includes all children (male and female children) born alive by the female concerned who are still living. It also includes all surviving children (male and female) of the woman living with her in the same household and those living elsewhere.

You should record the number of children born alive who are still alive by sex in 2 digits in the boxes provided. If the woman has no surviving children you should record 00 in the boxes provided.

You should note that the number of children surviving should not be more than the number of children ever born in P20a.
