Eincome
Record Type EINCOME
This Record contains income and payment data. There is one record for each payment recorded at
question F3.
This Record will only exist for respondents with one or more payments recorded at question F1, (i.e.
where ENF1 is greater than 0). For each payment identified at question F1 (i.e. in variables EF101
– EF159) then there will exist at least one EINCOME record with a corresponding value of EFICODE.
In those cases where payments from multiple sources were combined in a single payments and
individual receipts could not be distinguished, EINCOME records will exist for each source, but the
variables ENFR or EFRVAL may indicate that multiple amounts are referred to, or that the amount
is given on another record.
EFIM01L – EFIM01N are derived variables indicating the estimated amount received in each month,
taking into account joint receipt and changes in welfare benefit levels. These calculations depend on
the variable EFRJTVF, which is a flag variable identifying whether a reported jointly received payment
can be matched to any other persons payment.
The following variables have all missing data imputed:
See the User Documentation for a full discussion of imputation. Imputation flag variables are listed
below. Note that a value is not imputed where the missing value code is -3 ‘amount included
elsewhere’.
The results displayed in the following tables are obtained from unweighted data. A full discussion of
the use of the weights contained on this Record Type appears in Volume A.
