Due to the increasing number of dual-income and single-person households making visits difficult, the non-face-to-face digital survey introduced in the 2022 fact-finding survey is conducted by having the survey subjects access the Government24 app and respond to the fact-finding items.


Visit surveys will be conducted for households that did not participate in the non-face-to-face digital survey and for "priority survey target households."


This year’s priority survey target households include welfare-vulnerable groups, suspected deceased persons, long-term absentees and school-age children not attending school, centenarians aged 100 or older, and households including those missing for more than five years.


If a voluntary report is made during this resident registration fact-finding survey period, up to 80% of the fines imposed under the Resident Registration Act will be reduced.


Additionally, the reporting period for unregistered births will also be operated during the survey period.


During this period, a special task force (TF) for supporting unregistered births, led by Civil Affairs Manager Je Seong-hyeon, will be formed to provide integrated services such as birth registration, emergency welfare, and legal support.


Furthermore, in cooperation with local community volunteer organizations, anonymous and voluntary reporting of unregistered births will be encouraged, and investigations of unregistered births will be conducted mainly at child welfare facilities.



County Governor Lee Byeong-no said, “Since the resident registration fact-finding survey is a survey that forms the basis for the national and local governments to establish policies, we ask for the active cooperation of the residents, and we will do our best in the investigation to find unregistered children outside the system in connection with the resident registration fact-finding survey.”
