3. Instructions for filling in Part B:

If a family member is temporarily absent from the home address, but other family members are at home, this part must not be filled in by him/her, but must be filled in by a member of the family at his/her home address.

(b) Vehicles belonging to the employers of individuals, but at the full-time disposla of the employees should also be included against "motor car/combi/bakkie".
