📢 Need Help Completing Your Census? We understand that this year, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) has not automatically mailed paper Census forms to households. Instead, residents who would prefer a paper form need to request one directly from the ABS. If you're concerned that a requested paper form may not arrive in time, or if you'd simply like some assistance completing your Census online, the Shire is here to help. 💻 Bring your Census letter into the Shire Administration Office and our staff can assist you to complete and submit your Census online using the Shire's computer. Your Census letter contains your Census Login ID and password, which are needed to access your Census. This service is available for anyone who would appreciate a helping hand, particularly those who are less confident using computers. If you would like to complete the submission online using your Census Login ID and password from your Census letter, click here: https://www.abs.gov.au/census If you have any questions, please contact the Shire office on (08) 9928 1102. We're here to help make sure everyone has the opportunity to be counted.
