Question 6: Marital Status

127. Ask the question "What is [the respondent]'s marital status?" and mark the option corresponding to the person's answer. Note that respondents are not required to provide proof of their marital union, but you are required to record the answer given.

128. The category "5 Renounced" applies mainly to Monks, Nuns and "Yawgi". You must mark "1" for all persons who have never been married. This includes all children who have not yet reached the age of marriage. Do not ask this question to people below the age of 10 years; just record option "1" for them.
