[For persons of all ages]
[Questions 1 to 12a]


Question No. 3: What is your age in years completed?
With this question we know the structure of the population by specific age and groups of ages.
Age: It refers to the age of an enumerated person at the moment of the census, that is, at the last birthday. Write down, with three digits, the age in complete years of the person.
If the person is 100 years old or more write down the number, with three digits, in the corresponding spaces; and if the person is less than 100 years old, put one or more zeros in front of it [the age], when necessary. If the person is less than one year old, mark circle 000. Immediately ask the day, month and year in which the enumerated person was born.
If any doubt about answering the question is observed, try to obtain the exact age through their personal identity card, the social security card or other documents that contain this information.
When the person does not know their age, does not have a personal identity card and has children, estimate the age based on her age when her first child was born and put next to the age the letter E (estimated).
