Who else got another one of those to fill out online? Takes 40 minutes to fill out, and by law I have to do it [:D]

These signs are like what you see around election time.
This way I can get an accurate head count of the household.[:D]
WILL GET AROUND TO IT ASAP [;)]
The post office is TOO big to fail. They need a bailout from the US census... [xx(]
Ya think they'll send me another one?

# of people. That's it.
I never got a form. Can't fill out what I don't have, and I am not going to ask for one.
Those that work for the Government in one for or the other may already be counted. Know for 80 and 90 I did not get one. Was told they did it for me. Wonder since I'm sort of still on the rolls( Retired) if they counted me.
Lost mine in a tragic outhouse fire. [:0]

probably send some moron to your house
I accidently put mine in the envelope backwards with the bar code facing in...
In 1990, the form was HUGE, as big as the instruction book for a form 1040. I laid it aside and put off filling out the forms. I guess I set it aside too long, because a yahoo showed up to ask the questions.
I don't remember the one in 2000. They might have forgotten to send me one then, too.
I don't work for the government. I doubt anyone completed a form on my behalf.

You are a cop right. You at least work for the city right.
quote:
Eugene, Ore.-- If you haven't dropped your official census form in the mail. You may get a knock on your door.
A second round of census forms will be mailed to 40 million households nationwide. These are for folks, who haven't returned their form or may have lost it.
Starting April 1 and lasting through July, census workers across the country will go door to door to manually get that data from you, if they haven't received your census.
Census workers will ask you 10 simple questions that should take about 10 minutes. Under federal law Title 13, these workers must protect the personal information you give them.
So how well are you doing with getting your form in on time? We asked some folks around town that question.
"Not yet, but we will," said Eugene resident Kelly Coffey. While others sent theirs off as soon as they received it. "We've turned ours," said Eugene resident Larry Trimble.
Census officials said about 85-million in taxpayer dollars is saved for every 1% increase in mail response.
Census officials said by resending the census forms they hope to get a 7-10% higher return rate. Its estimated it costs $57 per home for a census worker to collect your data manually.

Right on both counts. City cop, not a "government employee."
(I have asked many times, and no one yet has shown me Constitutional authority for a Federal law enforcement agency.)
I doubt that anyone's employer is handling their census forms for them.
Maybe they will eventually send the form, or maybe a yahoo will come by the house.
Then I got a reminder. Today I got a whole new form. I'm beginning
to get offended. At another example of government waste.

Didn't say federal Government just said Government.
There is city, county, state and federal government right.[:o)]
Oh well, the mexicans will make up for me.

David, I will respectfully disagree....if tax payer dollars pay your wage you are a government employee...as I said no disrespect noted, just sayin
question was what if a census worker and a LEO comes to your door , census worker wants to ask you questions the Leo is there to arrest you if you don't answer ,
you have the right to remain silent.[:0]
so what to do what to do[B)]
Tax payments,credit reports, taxes, etc. Uncle already has the info.
Never seen such terror over giving up less info than is already available about you and your family on the internet.
Tax payments,credit reports, taxes, etc. Uncle already has the info.
dont think it is the terror factor, it is the ones demanding your info.
as for the other info listed we gave that up voluntary.
it was by some what our choice
No offense taken. When most people hear the words, "government employee," they think Federal government, not local.
I just don't want anyone to think I work for an un-Constitutional Federal agency. I work for a duly constituted local agency, with local accountability.
Still waiting for someone to show me in the Constitution where a Federal law enforcement agency is allowed. Can you imagine how much money we could save if we sent all the Fedcops to the house?
I suppose I'll be fined. The only question I answered was the number of people living in the home.
that was all we sent in
