Question 10. Indicate all your sources of livelihood (means of sustenance)
Before asking the question, let the respondent get acquainted with the card (a list of sources of livelihood). After he/she has looked through the list, the respondent should declare one or several sources of livelihood chosen from the suggested prompts.
Mark one or several prompts from twelve options suggested in the census form.
"Income from work (except work at personal subsidiary plots)" - for those who would be paid for their work in cash or in kind, including farm labor.
"Personal subsidiary plot" - for those who are engaged in farming and/or cattle breeding at their personal subsidiary plots (including orchards and vegetable gardens). This source should be indicated for those engaged in farming, livestock or poultry breeding, essentially for family use.
"Scholarship" - for students who receive a scholarship (including scholarship paid to students by the sponsor enterprise or organization, or employment service).
"Pension (except a disability pension)" - for those who receive a retirement (old age) pension, pension for the loss of a breadwinner, long-service pension, or social pension. Check off the appropriate prompt for those entitled to a pension, and not those who collect it. Thus, a pension paid to a child because of the loss of a breadwinner should be indicated in the child's census form and not in his/her mother's form - even if she is the recipient of the pension.
"Disability pension" - for those who receive a disability pension. Mark the appropriate prompt for those who are entitled to a pension, and not those who receive it.
"Allowance (except unemployment benefit)" - for those entitled to monthly allowance:

- For the period of child rearing leave up to 18 months granted to working mothers, to working mothers attending part-time educational establishments or studying by correspondence, as well as to mothers in the military service under a contract, or to persons substituting them (the prompt should be marked for the woman herself or for the person substituting her);
- Children up to 16 years, as well as students of comprehensive educational institutions - until their graduation but not after the age of 18 years (the prompt should be marked for the child);
- Spouses of servicemen in military service under a contract living together with the spouses in the areas where they cannot find a job matching their qualification;
- Children up to 16 years whose parents evade to pay alimony, etc.

The "Allowance" prompt is marked for those entitled to it and not for those who collect it (e.g., if an allowance is granted to a child. and is received by the mother, the appropriate prompt should be marked for the child, and not the mother).
[p. 53]
"Unemployment benefit" - for those registered with the bodies of population employment service as unemployed and enjoying the unemployment benefit, as well as welfare granted by the employment foundation.
"Other types of governmental social welfare" - for inmates of children's homes, students of boarding schools, persons living in old people's and nursing homes etc., persons living on governmental welfare (population of collective households).
"Savings" - for those whose source of livelihood are savings, interest on deposits or securities.
"Income from renting or leasing of property" - for those receiving income in the form of rental fee for rented land, apartment, garage etc.
"Dependent on someone for support" - for those dependent on relatives or other persons, or alimony beneficiaries. If alimony is paid to minors, the "Dependent" option is marked for children, and not for the mother or father, though they may be the physical recipients of the alimony.
"Other source" - for those whose source of livelihood is different from the above (e.g., mendicancy, or collection and return of empty bottles etc.).
