Does (name)'s natural father live in this household?

Record line number of father or 00 for “No”.

Probe for additional household members. Probe especially for any infants or small children not listed, and others who may not be members of the family (such as servants, friends) but who usually live in the household. Insert names of additional members in the household list and complete form accordingly.

Now for each woman age 15-49 years, write her name and line number and other identifying information in the information panel of a separate Individual Women's Questionnaire.

For each child under age 5, write his/her name and line number AND the line number of his/her mother or caretaker in the information panel of a separate Under-5 Questionnaire.

You should now have a separate questionnaire for each eligible woman and each child under five in the household.

For all children under age 18, we want to know whether their own (natural) parents are listed in the Household Listing Form, and their survival status. This information can be used to measure the prevalence of orphanhood and child fostering in the population. For everyone age 18 and older, HL11-HL14 will be left blank. 

Fill in these questions in exactly the same way as HL11 and HL12. This time, make sure to record the survival status and the line number of the natural (biological) fathers. If the father of the household member is not alive or his survival status is now known by the respondent, move to the next person on the list. 

When you have completed the listing of all household members and all questions in the Household Listing Form, probe one more time to see if there are any other household members you have not included in the list. If there is any, insert the name of the member and complete the form.

When you have completed the Household Listing Form for all household members, prepare the individual questionnaire forms for this household:

- For each woman age 15-49 years, write her name and line number in the spaces provided (WM3 and WM4) at the top of her Questionnaire for Individual Women. 

- For each child under age five, write his/her name and line number (UF3-UF4) and the name and line number of his/her mother or caretaker in the spaces provided (UF5-UF6) at the top of the Questionnaire for Children Under Five. 

You should now have a separate questionnaire for each eligible woman and child under five in the household, ready for use when you administer the questionnaires later on.
