Zhongshan City held a special press conference for the seventh national census.
Follow census respondents:
Residents of non-residents visiting for short periods of time are not registered
In the seventh national census, the census registration objects of Zhongshan City are natural persons living within the administrative region of Zhongshan City at the standard time of the census and residents with household registration in Zhongshan City who live outside the administrative area of Zhongshan City, but do not include short-term stays in Zhongshan City, such as business trips, tourism, sightseeing, visiting relatives, friends and other residents and overseas personnel. Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan residents and foreigners living in Zhongshan are also subject to the census and need to be registered for the census.
Focus on collection items:
Collect a citizenship card number for the first time
This census mainly investigates the basic situation of the population and households, including names, citizen identity card numbers, gender, age, ethnicity, education level, industry, occupation, migration and mobility, marriage and childbirth, death, housing, etc. In order to improve the quality of census data, the identity card numbers of census respondents will be collected for the first time in this census, mainly for the purpose of data comparison to ensure the authenticity and accuracy of the data.
Pay attention to the registration method:
You can choose to register at home or fill in the form yourself
The seventh national census is registered on a household basis, and in principle, electronic devices are used to collect census data in two ways: one is that the census enumerators use smart phones or PAD to register household information and report in real time on the Internet; the other is that census subjects use smart phones to fill in their own reports. Self-reporting is carried out through the WeChat Mini Program, and each household can be filled in by one member of the information of the owner of the household.
Focus on the entry process and timing:
Mapping and registration continued until 10 December
There are two links in the census that require enumerators to enter the household, in chronological order, namely mapping and registration. From October 11 to October 31, the enumerator has to walk into the streets and alleys, door by door to conduct field surveys, at this time the households can determine the way of filling in their own families with the enumerators, whether to ask the enumerators to register or choose to fill in the reports independently. If you choose to fill in the report yourself, the enumerator will use the electronic collection device to generate a two-dimensional code to the residents, and the residents can start filling in the census information of themselves and their family members after successfully scanning the two-dimensional code, until the deadline of November 5.
From November 1 to November 15, the short form registration period is a time when enumerators will come to the door to register households that choose to register at home or fail to complete the self-report before November 5. After the completion of the registration of the short form, the state will also randomly select 10% of households to fill in the long census form, and the census instructor will visit the long table households again from November 16 to 30 to investigate more detailed population structure information. Together with the subsequent comparison review, the entire registration process will continue until 10 December.
Focus on:
Nanfang Daily: How can residents cooperate with household registration?
Sun Zhihong: Before the enumerator enters the household registration, please prepare the identity card information or resident registration book of all members of the family, understand the current residential address of the family members in advance, and wait for the census taker to register. Census supervisors and enumerators will wear uniform documents to carry out their work, and when the enumerators come to the door, the residents can first verify the identity of the enumerators and then invite the enumerators to enter the home for registration.
At present, the city's 20,000 census supervisors and census enumerators have begun to go door-to-door to carry out the investigation and registration work, they will wear unified documents and wear uniform red and white vests, I hope that the general public friends can support the work of our census supervisors and census enumerators, truthfully reflect the population situation of their families, I am here to thank you. At the same time, please rest assured that we will keep confidential information such as ID card numbers, and in accordance with the requirements of the Census Regulations, the data we obtain cannot be used for other purposes except for census and population statistics.
