Here are three things you should know and share with family and friends:</p>
<p>• Official U. S. Census workers now going door to door can be identified by their<br />
badge, handheld device and canvas Census Bureau bag. Ask to see the individual’s<br />
badge before answering any questions, and do not invite anyone you don’t know<br />
into your home.</p>
<p>• Census workers will verify how many people live at your address and gather<br />
information about each person, including name, age, gender, race, and so on.<br />
Although they may ask for basic financial information, such as salary range, they will<br />
NOT ask for Social Security, bank account or credit card numbers, nor will they solicit<br />
donations. You are not required to answer any questions about your<br />
financial situation.</p>
<p>• Census workers may contact you in person or by telephone or mail, but they will NOT<br />
contact you by email. Beware of email scams and never click on a link or open an<br />
attachment in an email allegedly from the U.S. Census Bureau.</p>
