This article introduces the twangRDC package, which contains functions to address non-linkage in U.S. Census Bureau datasets. The U.S. Census Bureau’s Person Identification Validation System facilitates data linkage by assigning unique person identifiers to federal, third party, decennial census, and survey data. Not all records in these datasets can be linked to the reference file and as such not all records will be assigned an identifier. This article is a tutorial for using the twangRDC to generate nonresponse weights to account for non-linkage of person records across U.S. Census Bureau datasets.
