B. Questions for all the people
This part involves all people who slept in the household the night before census day. The questions in this part are also found in the short questionnaire.
The questions in this part must be asked to every person following the order set. You must follow the flow of questions as arranged and read the question as written in the questionnaire. For more explanation, refer explanations in part 3.7 (how to ask questions).
Part "B" of the questionnaire contains the following questions:

Questions 1-4: Person number, name, relationship, and gender
The first step in filling this part is getting the list of all people who slept in the household the night before Census day and their relationship to the head of the household. It is better if you list the names in the order explained below to get the real situation of the household. You must list starting with the head of the household and shade in the space provided, then other members of the household who slept in the household the night before Census day. If there are more than six people, indicate in the space provided that extra questionnaires are used. After listing all the household members, continue interviewing the head of the household the remaining questions using the first questionnaire.
In order for you to get a correct list of all people in the household, you must know the meaning of a household.
For Census objectives, household is a person or people who live together and eat together. This is not the same as family. A family is for people who are related but household is people who live and eat together, even when they are not related. For example, three people who are not blood related (example, friends) but live and eat together; they will be regarded as a household although they are not a family.
At times it is difficult to know who is to be included in the household and who is to be left out. The following examples elaborate this situation:

• A man who has two wives who live in different places. Although the man will claim to live in both houses he will be enumerated in the house he slept the night before the census day.
• It is possible that a woman who said that the husband is the head of the household and later realized that he did not sleep in the house the night before census day though he lives there. If the husband did not sleep in the household the night before census day, he will not be listed in that household. Therefore, the wife will be the head of the household, for census purposes.

[p. 24]

• Sometimes, a person may be eating in one household and sleeping in another. This person will be listed in the household he slept in the night before census day.
• A person who lives alone will be listed in a private household of his own.
• A house maid: she/he will be listed in the household she/he slept in the night before census day.

Note: every person listed in the household must have slept in that household the night before census day.
When the respondent is listing the names of members of the household, write those names in column 2 of the Census questionnaire: [write] one person's full name in each line.

Shade the code which matches the gender of the person being interviewed. The codes used for this question are as follows:
Sex

[Illustration for question 4 is omitted]
Be careful when shading the sex of young children. It happens most of the time that is not easy to know the sex of an infant. Therefore, you must ask about the sex, don't assume. Don't fill the sex of a person using the name because some names are used by both men and women.
