Legally you are obligated to answer whatever the US Census form asks. If you think this is a violation of your constitutional rights, think again:
The U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 2, Clause 3, Sentence 2, reads:
"The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct."
The Constitution does NOT limit the information that Congress may request in obtaining their Enumeration, except when that information might violate existing Amendments (i.e.: the IV Amendment (Illegal searches), or the V Amendment (Self incrimination)).
A census is potentially allowed to ask (as defined by Congress) race, age, gender and residency etc...

First, this is not the same exam you take to become a census taker (Test for Field Employee Positions). The D-270 is a 1 hour long exam consisting of 29 multiple-choice questions. The test does have a similar "look and feel" as the Field Employee exam, but the questions are related to various management issues in a census context. Most questions are along the lines of: "You have 4 employees, here is a table with stats about their output. Which employee is getting the least done?"
