Beware of imitators - for the 2020 Census, the United States Census Bureau will NEVER ask you for:
The enumeration began in Alaska on January 21, 2020, but most households in the United States will get information from the Census Bureau in March. From March through July the Census will be accepting (online, by phone, or by mail) and gathering responses, and in December the counts will be delivered by the Census to the President and Congress.
Census Dates to Remember:
March 12-20 — All U.S. residents are invited to respond to the 2020 Census questionnaire.
April 1, 2020 — Known as Census Day though households can respond before or after this date.
May 13, 2020 — The Census Bureau begins to follow-up with households that did not self-respond to the questionnaire.
July 31, 2020 – Households can respond online, by phone or by mail through this date.
The census is a count of the U.S. population taken every 10 years since 1790. It is used to make decisions about representation and taxation among the states of the nation. It is provided for in Article I of the U.S. Constitution.
