2020 Census – Beware of Fakes

02/12/20

Contributed by Doreen Hettich-Atkins

The 2020 Census is coming but it seems as if imitators and scammers are coming too – please be aware. 

The 2020 Census this year will be announced to all households via a postcard that will be sent in mid-March.  The postcard will direct you to respond to the Census online. 

We have recently become aware of an organization that has sent out a paper document called the “2020 Congressional District Census”.  This is NOT the official government 2020 Census.  

 Please read all mailings carefully.  You will receive a longer paper mailing from the Census Bureau only if you don’t complete the Census on-line.  The Census will NEVER ask you for a financial contribution. 

You can see a sample copy of the Census questionnaire here

You can see a sample copy of the invitation to participate postcard here.   

 

You can learn more about the census at this fantastic IC Library created Guide.
