Interviewer instructions
Here we will ask relationship between household members and household head and will circle a suitable code 01-10 for each person.
Non-relationship:
* those people who do not have any relationship with head of household but permanently living together with that household, do not have any financial and material relationship with other household and family, and do not form a separate household.
* those people who are enumerated in the cover sheet of the census questionnaire, do not have family and blood relationships with each other and defined as living in the dormitory or other house(3) will be considered as unrelated persons.

Description

Definition
Family (father/mother's) name: Based on 3rd paragraph of article 24 “child shall get father's name” of the Law on Family approved by State Great Hural in 1999 and 4th paragraph of this law “child shall get mother's name if he was born from mother, who didn't register her marriage or without any decision defining his father from authority”, enumerator shall write respondent's family name and given name fully. Do not add suffix “eei” or “ui” end of respondent's family name. For example, suppose respondent's name of father is Dorj and his given name Bat. In this case, enumerator shall write “Dorj” in opposite of “family name” part and “Bat” in given name part. Number is in front of “Family name” part order of enumerated persons in particular household (room of dormitory). Enumerator shall make a consideration to avoid edit, miss out, especially numbered wrong in continuation sheets.

Household head: Household members will decide who head of household on their volunteer basis is. But it is not necessary that household head is resident in particular household to census answer questions. If family members could not decide who is household head, in this case enumerator can be consider any member aged above 16 years, has a job and makes major contribution for household income as a head, and fills up questions related to household head. Enumerator shall be respected comments of other members reached to 18 years old.
