Spoke with my neighbours. No-one in this small block has received anything.

Totally off topic but perhaps of interest - unlike the rest of UK Scotland has deferred this year's census to 2022.  Perhaps to avoid enumerators knocking on doors? Not sure.

Strange, as the UK census was conducted online.

Enumerators here have been hand delivering the codes needed to complete the census on line  and the full paperwork for those who do not have that option.

The official website says 'watch your letterbox' which I have been. Nothing doing. I shall no doubt be fined for not completing a census return (it is compulsory here) even though I had no means to do so.

Is there nowhere online you can request a form or report you haven't received one as yet?

Can't remember when there was a UK census.  Was there ever one?
Perhaps you mean England and Wales?  Northern Ireland is separate too.

Knew it was too good to be true. Just tried to do my duty and the website says the user code or the password is not correct. Obviously I am only putting in what they have told me.

Welcome to Portugal...

They've still employed people to knock on the doors to chase the people that haven't completed the Census online.
My friend is doing said job - she was working in London Easter weekend, and got plenty of abuse! She was due to door knock in Bristol on Saturday but it was cancelled due to Prince Phillip's funeral!

Still nothing here. As the enumerator hasn't been here at all, how will they know I haven't done it I wonder?

Is completing the census voluntary in Portugal?

No, it is mandatory for all residents and households.

I shall print the forms and complete them, in the hope that eventually someone will come to collect them.

Apparently so but trying to get in to see them is not easy at the best of times. I shall wait a bit.
