Census Response Collection Ends October 5
The Census Bureau announced on Sept. 28 the extended deadline of Oct. 5, 2020 to conclude the 2020 Census self-response and field data collection operations.
Self-responses are Census responses that household sent over mail or online at 2020census.gov. Field data collection refers to the Census responses field data collectors received during their door-to-door household visits that haven’t sent their self-responses over the mail or online.
