I received an email from the Census Bureau. Is it legitimate?

To ensure everyone is counted in the 2020 Census, the Census Bureau has updated its communications strategy to include email outreach in areas where many homes have not yet responded. Official Census Bureau emails will be sent from 2020census@subscriptions.census.gov. Further, it’s important to remember that, during the 2020 Census, the Census Bureau will never ask for:

• Your Social Security number.
• Your bank account or credit card numbers.
• Anything on behalf of a political party.
• Money or donations.

If you have already responded to the 2020 Census, you may ignore this reminder. 

When should I fill out my Census?

Complete your Census today, before it’s too late! This month, Census takers will go door-to-door to households that haven’t responded.

Who should be included in my Census?

Include all people living in your home as of April 1, 2020: from 1 day old to over 100 years old, citizens and noncitizens, temporary residents and long-time residents, and everyone in between. Everyone counts.
