I also got a second one but it is people like you is the reason the United States is in the shape is. Just go along with the system don’t cause no waves. I think the second one was a waste of tax payers money but this President must have a money tree behind the white house the way he is spending money. But it not going to stop until the people make them stop.

According to the Fourth Amendment, all that is legally required is:
Actual number of people residing at said residence.
Age of each person
Sex of each person
That’s all! Anything more is a violation of the Fourth Amendment, as an unwarranted search of said person, house, and papers.
I received my pre-census letter and my post census postcard, but NO census form at all. That’s hope and change for you!

If you simply read the cover sheet it explains why you got a second copy and not to fill it out, if you have already done so! READ THE COVER SHEET!

Why all the complaining ? Is it all that difficult for you to fill it out and mail back???? If so, someone will come to your house and help you fill it out!

A child with a 4th grade education should explain to our amazing United States government, how to count the people in the United States without spending billions of dollars and not have a clue how many of us are here. I received a form, promptly filled it out, then realized I should not mail it before April 1——because they asked for information as of April 1. So a week after I received the first form, I received a card reminding me to send the form—more money spent—On April 1, I mailed the first form. On April 2, I received a second census form, this one addressed to Resident — my address. Since I have only lived at this address for 43 years, they must have figured out that the house changes residents a lot. I called the local census office—no one could tell me there what to do with the second form. This person connected me to another individual who could not tell me either——so I made the “big” decision to burn the thing. So goes the waste in America.

I reluctantly returned my form, but did not answer whether my house was mortgaged, rented, paid off, or free, nor did I put my phone number. I wrote, “not required.” The Constitution does not give them the authority to retrieve any info other than, “How many live there?” This dictatorship is becomming very annoying. Has anyone out there heard about another outrage………………having to have a license for your home just like for your car, but worse? That is not all. It forbids you to sell your own house unless licensed and up to THEIR new energy codes. It is a real nightmare. Next, we may hear about a “Soylent Green,” factory. I am serious.

We received a census form at our rural box filled it out and sent back in the US mail as required. A week or so later we received another form. Were we supposed to submit two forms or just one? If only one then why did we we receive two?

I was told today that,if you get your mail to a po box,you will not get a form.So i guess that’s why they hire all those workers?We got a form on our own at city hall,and send it in.It’s important,but the system needs some bugs worked out.

Gosh, according to most of the comments posted by everyone here, either some didn’t get their census form or some got them 2 and 3 fold, along with reminder cards. Multiply those numbers of discrepancies by everyone else in all the other areas in our County, in our State and in all other States and imagine the amount of $$$ money being wasted on this non-sense.

Like Oversight said, they most likely already have all the 10 question information they are asking for already from other government data. What’s their point…to show us how dumb they are? We already know that! HA
