In the last part of this section, I will ask about the total income for the household in the last 12 months (previous to today) from paid work or other sources. I would like to know about all sources of income. I know it may be difficult to calculate that figure, but please do try to give as accurate an amount as possible. Remember that all information will be kept strictly confidential. This information is important to assess overall health and well-being of people in your household compared to other similar households.
