2010 Census begins in March and The Better Business Bureau is advising consumers to get the facts...

March of 2010, census forms will be delivered to every residence in the United States and Puerto Rico.  When you receive yours, just answer the 10 short questions and then mail the form back in the postage-paid envelope provided.  If you don't mail the form back, you may receive a visit from a census taker, who will ask you the questions from the form.  A census taker must follow-up in person with every address that doesn't mail back the form in order to obtain the responses.

What the 2010 Census Asks...

The 2010 Census will ask for name, gender, age, race, ethnicity, relationship, and whether you own or rent your home - just 10 simple questions that will take about 10 minutes to answer.
What the 2010 Census DOES NOT Ask

  • 2010 Census takers will not ask you for social security number, bank or credit card numbers.
  • 2010 Census takers also never solicit for donations and will never contact you by e-mail.

Is the Census Safe and Secure...

The Census Bureau safeguards all census responses to the highest security standards available.  Your answers are protected by law and are not shared with anyone. The census taker who collects your information is sworn for life to protect your data under Federal Law Title 13.  Those who violate the oath face criminal penalties.  Under federal law, the penalty for unlawful disclosure is a fine of up to $250,000 or imprisonment for up to 5 years, or both.

When Census Takers Go Door-to-Door...

From April to July 2010, the Census Bureau will knock on the door of every household that does not mail back a completed 2010 Census form.

How to Identify a Census Taker...

If a U.S. Census Bureau employee knocks on your door, here are some recognition tips to assure the validity of the employee...

  • The census taker must present an ID badge that contains a Department of Commerce watermark and expiration date.  The census taker may also be carrying a bag with a Census Bureau logo.
  • The census taker will provide you with supervisor contact information and/or the Local Census Office phone number for verification, if asked.
  • The census taker will ONLY ask you the questions that appear on the census form.

The census is a big deal and helps Uncle Sam know what is happening, where the population needs funding, how good or bad off an area is and who is in that area migration wise.

They have had so many commercials about this census. I guess they really want to get it right.
