Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

When doing a statistical test with DHS data, you need to take into account the design effects of clustering and stratification as well as weights. You can test whether two categorical variables A and B are independent using svyset and svy: mlogit A i.B . This will produce a test statistic for the model, which is equivalent to a test of the null hypothesis that A and B are independent.
