Although the 2021 census has been running in electronic form for almost two weeks, there is still a relatively large amount of uncertainty surrounding it. However, the Czech Statistical Office, which is the organizer of the census, is gradually trying to dispel these by publishing more and more clarifying information to help people fill out the form. Other information supplemented in this way answers questions regarding the current move, living abroad or commuting between multiple residences. So how to proceed in these cases?

Migration
If the 2021 census caught you just as you are moving, fill in the form with the address that was valid at the decisive moment of the census, which is March 26, 2021. In most cases, this will probably be your old residence.
Living abroad
If, for example, you commute between several places for work or school (for example, between living with your family and a work or student apartment used only during study days), according to the office, you should indicate the place where you have family ties, are members of the household or simply feel more at home.
Some of you may find yourself in a situation where you live with your family for half a year, for example in a city and half a year in a village (typically a city in winter, chaty or cottages during the summer). In this case, you need to indicate on the form the place where you spend most of the year, or the place where you lived at the decisive moment of the census - i.e. on March 26, 2021. So you don't have to look at your permanent residence or anything like that.
Living alternately in several places
If you live abroad, it will be extremely easy for you to complete the electronic questionnaire for the census. In it, you will only state the state in which you are located, and that de facto puts an end to all your worries about housing data. They would be of no use to the office and therefore you will skip the part dealing with your housing.
