April 01, 2010
April 1 is Census Day, and many people wonder what that means.
April 1, 2010 is the reference date for answers on the 2010 Census questionnaires. Census forms were mailed to over 4 million households in North Carolina, and every household is dynamic. When the Census questionnaire asks for age, everyone can answer accurately using April 1, 2010 as a reference.
April 1, 2010 is NOT a deadline or due date!
You do not have to wait until April 1, 2010 to return your Census form, and your 2010 Census form is not late or invalid if you return it after April 1, 2010. If you delay returning your Census form for a while after April 1, your address may be added to the list of addresses that did not return their form; and a Census worker may visit your address to ask you the Census questions. If you do not want to be visited by a Census worker, complete and return your Census questionnaire today.
