Trying to make Census of it all
Census Field Officers will grab their yellow satchels and hit local streets in coming days to remind households to complete their Census. Census Field Officers will visit homes that haven’t already completed their Census, offering help, answering questions and providing Census materials to anyone who needs them. Head of the 2016 Census, Duncan Young, said households that haven’t already completed the Census should do so as soon as possible. “With more than 6.5 million forms now completed, the Census is tracking well and we’ve received a great response from the public. The online form continues to be the most popular option with two thirds of responses having been received through our fast, easy and secure online form,” Mr Young said. “However, we need everyone who hasn’t yet taken part to do so now, so we’ll be following up with those households over the coming weeks. “If you already have your Census 12-digit login, I encourage you to complete it online and save yourself a visit from a Field Officer. If you have a paper form, please complete it and send it back in the provided Reply Paid envelope now.
or you have misplaced your Census login or form, please call the Census Inquiry Service or wait for a Field Officer to deliver you with one so you can quickly and easily complete it.” “The Census should be completed in relation to your household situation on the night of Tuesday, 9th August, so the sooner you complete it and return your form, the easier it will be to complete it in relation to Census night,” Mr Young said. The Census Inquiry Service is open from 8am– 8pm daily on 1300 214 531. The Paper Form Request Service is open 24/7 on 1300 820 275.
