6.2.5.4 Date of departure, destination, and reason for departure (Column E7 to E9)
Question E7 is meant to collect information on the departure date of emigrants from the household in the last five (5) years. The agent asks the question: "What was [name]?s date of departure?" and records the month and year of departure in the boxes provided for this purpose. In situations where the month and / or year is not known, the agent records "99" and / or "9999" respectively.

[pg. 39]

The agent then asks, "What is [name]?s country of destination?"(Column E8). The agent records the full name of the destination country. When the country is not known, enter "Unknown." the boxes are left blank for codification.

Finally, the agent asks the question: "For what reason did [NAME] leave?"(Column E9). He records completely the wording of the answer then records the code corresponding to the response in the box provided.

01 = economic reasons
02 = social reasons
03 = professional reasons
04 = political reasons
05 = study purposes
06 = health reasons

Instructions: For the registration of emigrants, make sure that the person was actually a member of the household in question. Probe to avoid recording a single emigrant in several households (related).

All the girls in the household who are married and who have lived in another household in Mali before emigrating are not taken into account.

The boxes of the column E8 should not be filled out (reserved for the coding team).

If the reason given is not one of the codes listed above, the agent records the wording of the response completely on the line and leaves the empty boxes.
