Every Census since the 1790 Census has included citizens and non-citizens alike. The U.S. Constitution provides that the state population totals used as the basis for congressional apportionment, as derived from a census conducted every 10 years, shall include the ‘whole number of persons in each state” (14th amendment, Section 2).

If a person is staying at an address as of April 1, 2020, list them at that address. If you are homeless, list the shelter you stay at or wherever you lay your head at night.

Only one person needs to fill out the form, but should all those who live at that address in that household.

No. The FBI, IRS, ICE or other government agencies do not have legal right to access this informaton. Violating the confidentiality of a respondent is a federal crime that includes up to 5 years in jail and a $250,000 fine, or both. Census workers are sworn for life to uphold the law. Special security measures are in place to restrict access.

If you fill out the form and mail it back, a Census worker will not have to visit your home. Census Enumerators only visit homes that did not complete and mail back the form. Can I fill it out online?
