American Community Survey - Split level duplex, 100% owner occupied
(apologies in advance for some of the maybe? irrelevant details here)
My fiancé and I purchased a duplex/split level in October 2024, she is the morgatage holder and we are both on the deed. I pay most of the mortgage to her and utilities are in my name. We are getting married in one month! :) We have been the only people occupying both floors since we purchased. It has two legal addresses with the USPS and utility company. We plan to convert it to single family at some point, but at the moment all utility for each respective unit/address are in my name, we use the downstairs as our living room space and upper as bedroom, closet, etc.
Problem is, we have all mail sent to the lower unit address, and census has sent notice to complete the American community survey and specifically addressed it to the upper unit address (the one we don't use as our primary mailing address). How are we supposed to proceed?
We are wondering if this is related to our current fight with the city regarding our 100% principle residence status. They are only giving us 50% because it is split level, despite us using it as our 100% principle residence and they share an interior entrance way.
I've been confused on how to fill this out, and the call help number is my next stop, but figured I would see if anyone else has been in this position. Thanks in advanced!
