st: svy: total command

Dear all,
I am using the Stata command svy: total, in order to estimate the
total number of migrants from Uganda, residing within or outside
Uganda, who remit money to their origin family.
The specific command I am using is:
. tab q518_1, gen(dremit)
(the answer to the question 5.18_1 is a label variable: yes if the
migrant remits and no otherwhise)
. svy, over(internal): total dremit1
(internal = 1 if the migrant has migrated within Uganda and 0 otherwhise).
Is this procedure correct?
Or should I use total command directly on label variable q518_1?
thank you
Rebecca
