With this file, users may identify specific family types, such as two-parent and lone-parent families. Information is also provided on earnings, transfers, and total income for the head and the spouse of the census family unit, as well as personal and labour-related characteristics. This reference year for this file is 1997. Commencing with the 1998 microdata files, annual cross-sectional income data will be sourced from the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID).

This file consists of one record for each child and adult in the surveys' samples. Each key file record has the identification numbers for the correponding household, economic family, census family, and individual. Each record has the household (HH), economic family (EF), census family (CF), and the individual 15+ microdata tape identification numbers of the individual.
