Household Assets Survey

The Household Assets Survey (HAS) is a vital source of information on how households in Great Britain are managing economically. The questionnaire focuses on borrowing, savings, household assets and saving plans for retirement. The results will be used to inform government policy on a range of issues, including pension provision.

HAS is a longitudinal survey, which means respondents are interviewed more than once, over a period of time - approximately two years a two year interval in this case. If your contact details change during this time, please email has.contacts@ons.gov.uk stating:

  • your name
  • old and new address
  • contact telephone number
  • the names and ages of other household members who have moved with you to this new address, if applicable
