Census 2020?

wonderfulworld · ‎12-05-2012

I received an 'invitation' to log into my computer with a special pin type number to complete census. It was addressed to Resident and came in the mail this week.

Well several months ago we received a mailing, maybe ten pages long to fill out and mail in asking for census info. Pretty involved. Others I know received it also.

Which was real? Did anyone else receive the mailing?

Tried to find out on line with no success. Thank you if you can speak to this.

@wonderfulworld I received that yesterday and did the census online, it was fast and easy, and I did not receive the mailing.

I found this:

In 2020, the agency will send to 95% of households nationwide an "invitation" to respond to the census either online, over the phone or by mailing back the form. But the agency won’t deliver the invitations to P.O. boxes, because they aren’t tied to specific housing units.

We received only the invitation to complete online, so I did.

I received 2 and I think they both said resident. They said they were also going to send out a paper copy. I went ahead and did mine online. I was expecting so did not think about it being a scam.

I did mine online a few days ago. Very quick and easy

There are other threads this week about posters receiving their online code to complete it online and we got ours today.

A couple of minutes and it was done!

@wonderfulworld If I recall correctly, the last time we did the census, a few people got an expanded questionnaire such as you describe with more complex and thorough questions. I wouldn't worry about it but you could call next week and ask. There should have been an explanation.
