Only for persons younger than 18:

MF3. In what year did the cohabitations with the current/last partner begin? _ _ _ _ (year)

The objective is to capture the starting year of the cohabitation for all the people who are currently living together in pairs or have lived together at least once. What is important to record is the year that the person started to cohabitate, independently of the type of connection. For example, if the person started to cohabitate in the year 1982 and got married to that same partner in 1985 the starting year would be 1982.

If the person currently lives in partnership, note the starting year of the cohabitation with respect to the current partner.

If the person doesn't currently live in partnership, but lived at least once with another, note the starting year of cohabitation of the last partner with whom he has lived.

Remember to always enter the 4 digits of the year that the person declares.

It can happen that, for the person responding, it's easier to declare the number of years that they have lived together. In this case the interviewer should perform the calculation of the starting year of cohabitation and note it in the corresponding box.

If the person can't remember the date or time that the cohabitation started, record that he doesn't know.
