The census faces its biggest shake-up in its 200-year history under Office for National Statistics proposals.
An online survey could replace the study - carried out every 10 years - or information could instead be collated using data already held by government.
The plans will be fleshed out and put out to consultation this month before Parliament makes a decision in 2014.
