How can anyone mail it back before 4/1? The question asks how many will be living there on April 1st. So in order to be truthful don’t you have to wait until 4/1 to mail it back?
This is my home, not a hotel.
I don't have people coming and going everyday. I knew at the beginning of the year how many people would be living here on 4/1.
Unless someone dies in the next couple of days, the answer isn't going to be any different. And frankly, if someone in my home dies before 4/1, the accuracy of my census form is going to be the least of my concerns.
