WHAT IS THE eCENSUS?

The eCensus is the electronic option for returning your Census form, which allows you to complete the Census via the Internet.

WHAT DO I NEED TO COMPLETE AN eCENSUS FORM?

If you choose to complete an eCensus form, you will require the following:

    • access to a computer that is connected to the Internet
    • an Internet browser such as Internet Explorer Version 5.01 or higher, or Netscape Communicator Version 6 or higher, or Firefox 1.0 or higher
    • a Census Form Number
    • an eCensus Number, which is in the sealed leaflet titled ‘Complete Your Census Form on-line’.
    • the web address, which is: www.census.abs.gov.au

Your Census Form Number is written by the Collector in the top right hand corner of your paper Census form. This Census Form Number is the same for every person in your household on Census Night, 8 August 2006.

Allowing anyone else access to your eCensus Number will risk the confidentiality of your information.

WHAT IF I NEED MORE HELP?

Should you have difficulties gaining access to, or completing an eCensus form, please select an on-line help option from the eCensus Web Site, or call the Census Technical Help line on 1300 651 181.

For further information on the eCensus see eCensus in Detail.
