Statistics Canada does not publish personalized income information. The information collected from these questions is used to look at general trends and does not in any way identify individuals.
Information on this census questionnaire is strictly confidential by law and no individual, government department or agency outside of Statistics Canada has access to it. The Statistics Act prohibits Statistics Canada from disclosing any information that can be related to any individual person or company.

The objective of these questions is to distinguish people 12 years old or older who receive income through retirement, pension, help from family members outside of the country, support from Procampo, grants or help from other institutions, rent or interests from banks in regular or habitual form.
Other income is considered those that the person receives regularly, in a weekly, bi weekly, monthly, every other month, four monthly or annually form. Although occasionally the time period can vary with what is given (for example, help from family members who live abroad), but continue being regular.
Do not consider the following cases as other income:

- Money provided from the sale of properties: houses, land, furniture, among others or of savings, like: canceling savings accounts, group income, prizes, lotteries, etc.

- What people receive very occasionally or one time in their life.
- Income received for maintenance (food, clothing, education, of children because of a separation or divorce).
Question 7.10 has seven answer options, which should be read to the informant to find out if the person received any income or more than one. Because of this, the asking of the question permits us to register up to a maximum of three options (columns 7.10A, 7.10B, 7.10C). The options are described below.
[graphic of the question from the census form]
retired or pensioned?...1
It is understood to be people who receive an income from any institution of social security like IMSS or ISSSTE, because they have finished their years of work, by age or because they had a professional accident (from working) and because of that have been retired or pensioned.
Also include pensioned family members (spouse or small children) who receive an orphan, widowed or pension, or another when the worker has died.
[p. 141]
help from family members from another country?...2
It is understood to be people who regularly receive economic help from family members who live outside of the country (United States, Canada, etc.) like children, parents, brothers and other family members.
Do not take into account income the people receive from family members who live in the country or in the same household.
rent or interest from bank?...3
It refers to people who receive a regular income for the renting of any property like: houses, land, pieces of land, among others or by interests derived from banking accounts.
Income by interests from banks is always considered to be what the person receives from the bank regularly.
aid from Procampo?...4
It is understood to be people (agriculture producers of basic cultivation) who receive economic support for being incorporated into the Program of direct support to the field (Procampo). This income is only considered if the person has received it and knows for certain that it will be received again.
grant or aid from other institutions?...5
It is understood to be people who regularly receive monetary income from a grant, to support studying expenses, (from the basic level to specialization). For example: scholarships to students awarded by the Secretary of Public Education (SEP) or other public or private, national or international organizations like: National Council of Science and Technology (Conacyt), Ford Foundation, among others.
other type?...6
It is understood to be people who receive monetary income in a regular manner, provided from other sources different than the ones previously mentioned. Remember not to include people who receive pension for maintaining children of separated or divorced parents, also the help of family members who live in the country.
When you write this code, specify the type of income that the person receives in the part for observations.
[p. 142]
None?...7
It is understood to be people who do not receive monetary income from any of the sources mentioned. When this is the case, go to the next person and if the last of the list, continue with section VIII Social subsidies, health services and disability.
If a person does not know or remember the source from which the income is received, write down 9 in column 7.10A.
Question 7.11 has the goal of finding out the income received and the period for each one of the options written down in question 7.10.
[graphic of the question from the census form]
The question can register information for three types of income. Each time you ask the question, replace the parenthesis for the option marked in 7.10 and ask for the period in which each income was received.
For example: if the person in 7.10 declares to receive income for retirement from IMSS and also economic aid from his son who lives in the United States, ask the question in the following manner:
Interviewer: How much does María receive from retirement.
Informant: 800 monthly
Interviewer: How much does María receive from the help that her son in United States sends her?
Informant: 100 dollars a month.
Interviewer: How much do they give her for each dollar?
Informant: Six pesos for a dollar.
[p. 143]
Then the information should be registered as below:
[graphic of the question from the census form]
The same as question 7.9 Income for work, this one includes four periods, (once a week, once every other week, once a month and once a year), to register the time period in which the income is received.
If a person says that the money or income is received in a different period than those considered, make the conversion of the amount to refer to it in one of the marked periods.
Example
A student receives income from a scholarship and the value is $720.00, corresponding to four months. To register the information, convert one of the indicated periods, in this case it can be annually or monthly. If you opt for annually, multiply 720 x 3 and register 2160 in the Income column and 4 (year) in the Period column. In the case of choosing monthly, divide 720 by 4 and write down 180 in the Income column and 3 (month) in the Period column.
When an informant declares an income equal to or bigger than 98000 new pesos, write down "98000."
If an informant does not remember or can not say exactly the value of income, ask for an estimate. If it is not possible to determine it, write down 99999 in the income column and 9 in the period column.
25. What was your total money income last month?
B/. ____
[] No income
Question 24 What wage or salary do you currently earn?

To get the following information, follow the instructions that are described below:
[p. 92]
Examples:
3) When the person declares go earn a "fixed wage" and "commission", write down both pieces of information in the corresponding boxes.
Question 25 What was your total money income last month?

Question Number 21: What was your income last month from:
b. Income from independent work or by your own account?
c. Farm or livestock sales?
d. Retirement payment, pension, grants, family aid, rent, investments, or subsidies?
e. Without income
Read every one of the alternatives and wait for the response of the person. If there is no income in any of the alternatives draw a diagonal line. Below is detailed what should be included in each alternative of the question.

[Below the text is a filled out form.]
[p. 74]
Example:
When enumerating a dwelling, it is found that one of its members worked in the agriculture and livestock sector in neighboring farms for 12 days. The payment received was B / 3.00 for 5 days and B / 4.00 the rest of the days worked, for which the calculation carried out is 3 Balboas for 5 days plus 4 Balboas for 7 days = B / 43.00. the salary to write down will be:
[Below the text is a filled out form.]
If a person is not sure or does not know the wage or salary of another person who is not present, with much tact, ask for last month's pay stub. If the checkbook corresponds to a week, multiply the gross total by 4.33 and if it is of every other week, multiply the gross total by 2.
If a person refuses to give a wage or salary, write down 9999 in the corresponding space
Example:
If you are enumerating a dwelling in the administrative unit Bella Vista and one of the members of the home who worked in a private company says that they do not know how much they earned, which is a subtle and indirect way of refusing to give the information, try to convince the person in a confidential way that they [the private company] have their information and use any other means of persuasion to get the required information. If you cannot obtain the information by any other means, write down the numbers 9999 in the following manner:
[p.75]
[Below the text is a filled out form.]
Example:
When enumerating an owner of a grocery store, he states that he sold more or less B / 250.00 in merchandise a day, but that the net gain is B / 15.00 a day. It did not close any day of the month. The income to be written down will be (15 x 30):

Mr. Victor Corrales who is a farmer, last month sold 300 lbs of corn at B / 10.00, 1000 lbs of rice at B / 12.00. Also he sold 3 chickens at B / 6.00 a head. The carried out calculation is 3 times 10 = B / 30.00 plus 10 times 12 = B / 120.00 plus 3 times 6 = B / 18.00 = B / 168.00. The income to be written down will be:

[Question 46 asked of persons 10 years and over.]
46b. Amount ($) _ _ _ _
This section, comprising eight questions - numbered 36 to 43 inclusive - must be marked on the questionnaire for the head of the household only.
79. Question 46 - Total income
This question is divided into two parts. The first part refers to the last pay period, and the second part to the total income received for the pay period marked above.
Remember that many people do not like to tell others how much money they earn, often they do not even tell their own family or friends. You must therefore be tactful if you are to get the questions answered correctly and willingly. You must emphasize that it is not intended to pry into the private affairs of the individual and that the information is required only to work out estimated averages for the whole country.
Since in some cases respondents would not tell even their own families how much they work for correctly, if at all, you should not expect such a respondent to tell you how much he earned in the presence of others. You should therefore be on guard for such cases and try as far as possible to get this information from the respondent by himself or herself. Your marks must indicate the person's gross income from all sources for the last pay period.
In general there are two types of income to be dealt with. The first is wages and salaries, that is earnings as a paid employee. Commission, overtime payments, bonuses, and any other extras must be included, before deductions for taxes, etc. are made - in wages and salaries.
The second type covers income as an own-account worker or employer, i.e. a person who has his own business or farm, with or without paid help. For these persons total receipts from their business farm or profession must be marked
[p.23]
Where a person receives income as a paid employee as well as an own-account worker or employer, the total income from all these sources must be marked.
Part (a) Pay period
Part (b) Total income
Four rows of figures are printed on the questionnaire. You are required to make a mark in each row.
The first row represents "thousands", the second row represents "hundreds" the third row represents "tens" and the fourth row "units".
Hereunder are some examples:
A person who earned $25 in his last pay period must be marked:-
Another person earned $129 in his last pay period must be marked:-
A person carrying on his own business or farm reports that for the past year he earned $2,706.
You should mark "year" in part (a) to represent the last pay period and part (b) should be marked.
41. Gross income (Nearest T.T. Dollar)
The census is a major source of collecting income data for all persons and their families and households in Trinidad and Tobago. This section seeks to obtain information on the amount of and distribution of income earned by households. Income can also be related to other characteristics of persons in households for example occupation, industry and level of educational attainment.
Census income data are widely used by government to develop support programmes, public social assistance, welfare payments and social services. Income data are also used to identify specific geographic communities in need of assistance. Business enterprises also use income data to help market their products and target consumers to sell other goods and services produced.
[p.60]
Remember income is defined as sources of benefits in both cash and kind accruing to the members of the household regardless of whether the members are economically active or not.
It is important to keep in mind that many persons are hesitant to tell others how much money they earn. You must therefore be tactful if you are to get the question answered correctly or willingly. You may need to emphasize or explain that the information is required to work out average income per individual for the entire country. If members of the household are still uncomfortable giving the exact amount of their income, use the income flash card provided by the Census Office as a last resort. Record the code that represent the income group to which the individual belongs.
In other cases, the head of the household may genuinely not be aware of the income of the other members. In cases like these, an effort must be made to obtain the information directly from the relevant member of the household. Perhaps an appointment can be made to meet the individual.
This Section is applicable to all persons 15 years and over whether working or not and is intended to reflect the situation at the time of enumeration. You are to obtain income data to complete items (1), (2), (3) and (7). Multiple entries are possible for any one individual.
Question 41 (1) - Paid employment
Income from paid employment include wages, salaries and other benefits in cash or in kind earned by individuals before deductions for social security schemes and income taxes. It also covers payments as commissions, tips and bonuses, cost of living allowances, vacation allowances, director's fees and the cost to employees of food, lodging, clothing which is provided free of charge or at a reduced cost. In other words, the total compensation package of the individual is recorded.
Question 41 (2) - Self-employment
For the self-employed, income reported should be net income i.e. total income less business operating expenses such as wages, rent, electricity and fuel. These persons may be those who operate agricultural operations, in addition to those who own and operate unincorporated business and persons in professional practice.
Question 41 (3) - Pension and annuities
Private and government pensions and annuities can be described as retirement benefits that individuals receive upon retirement to replace their earnings.
Many employers have established pension programmes for their employees so that upon retirement the employees will still receive some source of income. Included in pensions is the government's old age pension granted to senior citizens.
[p.61]
An annuity is a pension policy that the individual takes out or purchases on his or her own. These payments are usually made in a lump sum and then at a reduced monthly payment over a certain number of years.
Question 41 (7) - Other income
Is described as monies, which an individual receives from sources other than his/her wages, salaries, pensions and annuities. Other Income includes rent received, dividends, interest (investment income) and royalties. Periodic payments received regularly from an inheritance or trust fund are also regarded as Income, as well as alimony, unemployed benefits, sick pay, scholarships and remittances from abroad.
The following items should not be regarded as income:
For item, 1,2,3,7 income is recorded to the nearest dollar For example, $5000 is entered as _5000. Obtain from the respondent for each or any item indicated, whether the income relates to a daily (01), weekly (02), fortnightly (03), monthly (04), quarterly (05) or annually (06) period. These codes are inserted against each type of income recorded. If income is given monthly enter 04.
