People have just a few more days to get help from census collectors - before final notices are sent out.
It applies to all areas except the Far North, Te Tairawhiti and Hawke's Bay where the collection period was extended to June 1 because of Cyclone Gabrielle.
Census collectors will be in the community until Wednesday.
They'll also be at the Warriors game at Mt Smart Stadium in Auckland this weekend where if you do your census at the game you'll get a ticket to the match and $25 food and beverage voucher to spend at the game. If you’ve done the census and bring a friend to do it you'll both get tickets to the game.
People who take part will also go in the draw to win a trip for four to Australia to watch the Eels vs. Warriors game on July 8, 2023.
From May 9, people who still haven't completed their forms will receive a final notice and risk being fined two-thousand-dollars if they don't complete the census.
Stats NZ says 8.5 of 10 people have completed their forms.
Census Deputy Census Chief Executive Simon Mason joined Simon Barnett and James Daniels on the show to discuss the tactic.
