How Will You Be Notified of the Census and How Can You Complete It?
There are three ways to complete the 2020 Census: online, phone, or mail. Beginning in mid-March, the Census Bureau will mail a letter inviting households to complete the 2020
Census online. That letter also includes a phone number people can call to complete the Census over the phone.
If people want to complete the Census via the mail, they must wait for the paper questionnaire to arrive in the mail; it will be mailed by early April.
See this handout for more explanation about
the schedule for mailings.
