If you’ve received a form in the mail from the American Community Survey and think it’s a scam – don’t worry – it’s not.
Many people have suspected the survey to be a phony as the US Census occurs every 10 years, but the US Department of Commerce confirmed the form is real and a requirement for households who receive them.
The survey is an expanded Census form that may ask personal questions about marital status and personal income.
A Census worker will visit homes who do not complete and return the form.
