Exclusive: New York- Dear all, The crucial TIME is running out to be counted in the US Census 2010 by April 1. The US Census Bureau has already dispatched census form to every American household and each household must fill out the form and return it to the bureau. It is important for minority community such as Nepalese American community to participate in the counting in order to receive the benefit from the city and federal program for the next 10 years.

"We Can't Move Forward Until You Mail It Back."-U.S. Census Bureau

"The U.S. Census counts every resident in the United States, and is required by the Constitution to take place every 10 years.

The 2010 Census will help communities receive more than $400 billion in federal funds each year for things like:

-Hospitals
-Job training centers
-Schools
-Senior centers
-Bridges, tunnels and other-public works projects
-Emergency services

The data collected by the census also help determine the number of seats your state has in the U.S. House of Representatives.

In March of 2010, census forms will be delivered to every residence in the United States and Puerto Rico. When you receive yours, just answer the 10 short questions and then mail the form back in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you don't mail the form back, you may receive a visit from a census taker, who will ask you the questions from the form.

The majority of the country will receive English–only materials. Households in areas with high concentrations of Spanish-speaking residents may receive a bilingual (English/Spanish) form.

Any personal data you provide is protected under federal law."

If you are living in an apartment or house without an unique postal address please ask your landlord or roommate whether she/he has received the census form. You need to fill out your details. Important: Please fill out as "Nepali" at Q. # 9.
