Fill in the details: After logging in, select your state, district, and address.

House and Family Information: You will be asked 33 questions about the condition of your house, available amenities (electricity, water, toilet), and assets owned by your family (bicycle, TV, internet, etc.).

Submission and SE ID: After submitting the form, you will receive a Self-Enumeration ID (SE ID). Keep it safe.
