March 18, 2020 12:00 am • Last Updated: March 19, 2020 11:06 pm

[naviga:iframe width="100%" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BSJQ-UNfKBY" height="240" frameborder="0"] [/naviga:iframe]If you haven't already, you should be getting a letter in the mail any day now with instructions on how to fill out the 2020 census.

This is the first year the decennial census can be filled out online, and especially amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Census Bureau is encouraging people to submit the census online, over the phone or by mail, so census workers don't need to go to people's homes.

Day multimedia director Peter Huoppi and reporter Erica Moser put together a quick video showing the process of filling out the census online, from what the letter says to what the questions are. The video can be viewed at bit.ly/daycensusvideo.

Comment threads are monitored for 48 hours after publication and then closed.
