Get a paper form

Households that are part of the Census Test will get instructions on how to complete it. Some households will be asked to complete the Census Test online and some will be sent a paper form.

You’re encouraged to complete your form using the instructions you're given. If you've been asked to complete the Census Test online but would prefer to use a paper form, you can request one. 

If there are more than six people at your address on Census Test night, you can request an additional paper form.

If you want to fill in your Census Test privately, you can request a paper form to complete separately from your household by calling the Census Contact Centre on 1800 181 227.

You can request a paper form by either: 

• requesting another form online
• calling the Census Contact Centre on 1800 181 227.
