var_qstn_ivuinstr
write the respondent’s AGE in completed years on the day of the interview.
For instance, if the person is aged 4 years and 8 months, write 4 years. If the respondent does not know his/her age, you must make an effort to estimate his/her age by using events in his/her life or community as benchmarks. If you have been provided with a Calendar of Major Events, respondents who have difficulty in remembering their age might find it helpful to consult this calendar so as to relate the time of their birth to some major event in the past (for instance, the Earthquake of 1990, Revolution of 2007, year
2017, year 2036, Popular Movement of 2046, National Referendum Year 2048, National Census Year 2048, National Population Census 2001 and other similar events).
