You should really only be getting one questionnaire, either the short form or the long form. I got a mailing several months ago that directed me to go on line and answer the questions. I had the short form, and it took about a minute to fill out. I'm under the impression that they are trying very hard to have everything done on line, insofar as that's possible.

Three in one week seems odd. Maybe you should contact the Census Bureau.
