Return your U.S. Census form asap!

Posted by Fred Steiner on March 22, 2010 - 7:22am

Icon viewers
By now many citizens have received their census form. As you can see, it is much shorter than before. Only 10 questions! The questions don't ask about income or citizenship. They just want to know how many people live in your home, name, gender, and race.

It's simple and it's easy. The sooner you fill it out and return it, the easier it is for you. It won't get lost and you won't get a home visit.
