Applications of a Matched File Linking the Bureau of the Census Survey of Income and Program Participation and Economic Data
Working Paper Number SIPP-WP-03
The new Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) will undoubtedly become a major source of data on a wide variety of aspects of the well-being of the nation’s households, families, and individuals. SIPP is designed to collect information about cash and noncash income, taxes, and assets and liabilities from which improved estimates of income, poverty, and wealth can be derived. While the principal thrust of the survey is in the area of income and program participation with the intent of assessing policy issues such as the effects of proposed changes in program eligibility rules on benefits, it will address a much wider range of policy questions and yield data for analytical studies in a variety of areas of economic inquiry. The very richness of SIPP suggests the desirability of augmenting it with administrative and statistical records. In this report, attention is focused on some potential uses of a SIPP file linked to micro-level establishment and enterprise data from the economic censuses an other data sets maintained by the Bureau of the Census.
