<p>Hi,<br />I am interested in the retirement planning module. According to the content plan it should be included in wave 2 data. Will this become available when the second half of wave 2 data is published? And when is that?</p>

<p>Dear User Support</p>
<p>I am using the Understanding Society data for poverty analysis and would like to ask you if you can confirm whether I am using the weights correctly. These are the steps of my analysis:</p>
<p>- Restrict the sample to only those households where all individuals have responded(a_outcome=110 in HHSAMP). <br />- Create poverty flag for households below 60% of median income using following stata code:</p>
<p>cap drop poor<br />generate byte poor = .</p>
<p>summarize eq_inchh [aw = a_hhdenus_xw], detail<br /> replace poor = eq_inchh < .6 * r(p50) if !missing(eq_inchh)</p>
<p>- When calculating the median income for household, I used the household level weight (a_hhdenus_xw) from datafile HHRESP.</p>
<p>- Merge household level data with individual level datafile INDALL to obtain variable for dependent children (a_depchl_dv)<br />- Calculate proportion of dependent children living in poor households. When doing this, I use the individual level weight (a_psnenus_xw) from datafile HHRESP.</p>
<p>svyset [pw=a_psnenus_xw]<br />svy: tab poor a_depchl_dv, col</p>

<p>Dear User Suppport,</p>
<p>In the earlier release of wave 1 data you provided a derived variable imputing the profit from self employment earnings (a_jsprof_dv). Has this variable changed name in the latest release or is it not provided anymore?</p>
<p>Thanks,<br />Rigmor</p>
