Question P-10 and P-10a -- Citizenship

This question has two parts, P-10 and P-10a. The second part only applies to people who answer "No" to the first part. So people who answer "Yes" to the first part will "skip" P-10a and go to Question 11.

P-10 "Is (the person) a South African citizen?"

Remember that people who were not born in South Africa can be citizens of South Africa. The reverse is also sometimes true. That is why we need this question as well as the last question.

Accept the respondent's answer. You do not need to ask for proof. However, if immigrants hesitate to tell the truth, remind them that the information is for statistical use only, and will not be disclosed to any other authority or organisation or private person because the Statistics Act restricts the use of census data to statistics only.

Dot the correct box, i.e. Y or N box.

If Yes go to P-11. In other words, if Yes to P-10, skip P-10a and go to P-11. If No to P-10, write the name of the country of citizenship in P-10a.

P-10a "What is the name of the country of citizenship?"

Write one letter per box. Use capital letters only. Do not leave any spaces between words. Write as many letters as you have spaces for.
