Census Questionairre
Did anyone get this in the mail? I am filling it out online and it asks for a lot of information. Plus, I am getting phone messages every day. I know the importance of the census, but I'm starting to feel a little harassed.

I don't think there is a census this year...The next one is in 2020, so I would worry that it is a scam?

Re: Census Questionairre
The census was in 2010 and the next one is in 2020. I would not fill the info out. Look up on line , it sounds suspicious.

Re: Census Questionairre
"The current national census was held in 2010 and the next census is scheduled for 2020 and much of it will be done using the Internet. For years between the decennial censuses, the Census Bureau issues estimates made using surveys and statistical models, in particular, the American Community Survey."

They do census work between the big census years. My MIL is employed by the census. The american one noted above asks for A LOT of info. They are only contacting you a lot since many people do not fill it out and then a field agent needs to go to your house and do it with you.

You can refuse though right?

I'm not sure if you can....I remember literally being stalked 5 years ago by the census agents, it was awful.

I don't think you can. I think you can refuse to answer individual questions but not the whole questionnaire.

I know I got one a few years ago and filled it out. Is there a number you can call just in case to see if its legit?
