Interviewer instructions
This question asks about the marital status of the respondent. Circle 1 (Single) if the woman has never been married in her life. Circle 2 if the ER is currently married, that is if she is legally married. A woman who is living consensually with her partner is considered as 'living together', hence circle code 3. Circle 4 and 5 if the ER is separated/divorced and widowed, respectively.
