34. Does your spouse or partner live in this household?
This question and the following (35 to 38) are asked only to people age 14 or older.
The objective of the question is to identify the couples in the household. From the question "Relationship" with the head of the household, it is only possible to identify if the head has a spouse in the household. The inclusion of this question allows us to know if there are other couples in the household and identify the members that compose them.
Spouse or partner is understood to be any conjugal relationship that implies cohabitation in the household, independent of the type of union (legal or consensual) or whether it deals with a same-sex or opposite-sex couple.
- If the person answers "Yes", circle the corresponding code and complete the following question (who is the spouse/partner)
- If the person answers "No", do not ask the next two questions and inquire after the civil status of the person (question 37).
[p. 37]
35. Who is this person?
Register the number of the person in the household that is identified as the spouse or partner.
One particular case is that of same-sex couples. If the person spontaneously declares that the partner is a member of the household of the same sex, proceed to register the information in the same way as for the couples of the opposite sex.
