Replication code for "Newly Available Individual-Level U.S. Tax Data from 1969-1994"

This replication package provides code for the data analysis reported in “Newly Available Individual-level U.S. Tax Data from 1969-1994”. All data analysis was conducted in the Integrated Research Environment of the Federal Statistical Research Data Center (FSRDCs). The source data included IRS Form 1040 files, Current Population Survey data, and decennial Census data. The code provided with this documentation includes redacted variable names, dataset names, and dataset paths, since that information is protected by Title 13 and Title 26 of the U.S. Code. All results and replication code have been reviewed to ensure that no confidential information is disclosed. Researchers who would like to replicate or review this analysis within the FSRDCs should take the following steps: (1) Propose an FSRDC project that includes the following datasets: IRS Form 1040 from 1969, 1974, 1979, 1984, 1989, 1994, 1999; Current Population Survey ASEC from 1973, 1985, 1991, 1995, 2000; Current Population Survey PIK crosswalks from1973, 1985, 1991, 1995, 2000; Decennial Census data and PIK crosswalks from 1940, 2000; and (2) Request access to CES Technical Note “Replication Documentation for 'Newly Available Individual-level U.S. Tax Data from 1969-1994' by contacting an FSRDC Administrator or [e-mail]. The technical note contains the same code provided here, but with unredacted information on variable names, dataset names, and dataset paths.
