Memorandum 2018.14: Release of the 2020 Census Update Leave Detailed Operational Plan

Memorandum 2018.14

This memorandum documents the release of the 2020 Census Detailed Operational Plan for the Update Leave operation. This document outlines the design of the Update Leave operation for the 2020 Census.

The Update Leave operation is designed to occur in areas where the majority of housing units either do not have mail delivered to the physical location of the housing unit or the mail delivery information for the housing unit cannot be verified. The purpose of this operation is to update the address and map feature data for the area assigned and to leave a questionnaire package at every identified housing unit.
