To my understanding, every household is asked to fill out the census. But in the case of non-documented (illegal) immigrants, they shy away from responding b/c they thing the information will be reported back to INS or something. There are so many inaccuracies in the Census, from miscounting of homeless people, to people who refuse to respond, to the people who fill out forms incorrectly, and so on and so forth. However, in my opinion it's better than nothing.
