Dubliners are from today being asked to post back their Census 2022 forms if they have not yet been collected.
It comes as the CSO has thanked the public for their support of and participation in the census, which for the first time included a Time Capsule question.
Enumerators are now completing their collections and if your form has not yet been collected, please post it back to the CSO.

Returning census forms by post is free of charge to the householder.
Members of the public can post their Census forms to:
Central Statistics Office
PO Box 2021
Freepost 4726
Swords
Co. Dublin
K67 D2X4.
Once the 2 million forms are all returned to Census Head Office in Swords, they will be scanned, and the data analysed before being published as anonymised statistics.
Preliminary population figures from Census 2022 are expected to be published by mid-Summer.
As well as producing the results from Census 2022, the CSO is now looking ahead to the next census which will take place in 2027.
Plans are progressing on providing an online response option which will be part funded by the European Union National Recovery and Resilience plan (#NRRP).
Eileen Murphy, Head of Census Administration said: “We have seen great public support for the Census so far and would encourage anyone who still has their form to please post it back as soon as possible.”
“By law everyone who was present in the country on Census night must be recorded on a form, so it is really important that the completed forms are returned to us now.
"If you know of someone who needs extra support with their form, we ask you to check in with them and help them get in touch with us for further information if required.”
If your form has been lost or damaged, contact the CSO for a replacement by completing the webform on www.Census.ie or calling the helpdesk at 0818 2022 04.
