A household member is a person who normally live together and eat their meals together. For the purposes of this survey, "normally" is taken to mean that the person concerned has lived in the household for at least 6 of the past 12 months. Thus, the members of the household are identified on the basis of their "usual place of residence". (Note: A person living alone and making his or her own meal arrangements counts as a separate household.).There are some exceptions to this rule, which are described below:
1. The following categories of persons are treated as household members even though they have lived less than six months in the household during past 12 months:
(I) infants who are less than 6 months old,
(ii) a newly married couple who have been living together for less than 6 months, and
(iii) persons living together for less than 6 months but who are expected to live in the household
permanently (or for long duration).
2. Lodgers or other permanent residents who live and take their meals with the household are to be
counted as household members, even though they may have no blood relationship with the household
head.
3. Servants or other paid domestic employees should be counted as part of the household.
4. People who have lived in the household for more than six months of the past 12 months but have permanently left the household (e.g. separated or dead) are not considered members of the household for our purposes.
