Interviewer instructions

The pattern of migration of the household is classified as either a temporary migration or a permanent migration. The movement of the household to the place of enumeration may be treated as a temporary migration, if the household intends to move again to the last usual residence or to any other place. If the household, in normal course, is likely to stay at the place of enumeration and does not plan to move out of the place of enumeration, it will be treated as a permanent migration. If the pattern of migration is temporary, code 1 will be recorded and if the pattern of migration is permanent, code 2 will be recorded.
