Abstract
This paper details the survey methodology employed for Wave 2 of the Household,
Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey. Many of the fieldwork
procedures for Wave 2 concord with those used in Wave 1 and are documented in
Watson and Wooden (2002). Any modified fieldwork procedures are reported in this
document along with the response rates for Wave 2. An example of a procedure that is
unchanged from Wave 1 that is not reported below is the use of incentives – $50 for
fully responding households and $20 for partially responding households.
