Income – Custom Retrievals

Custom data retrievals may be ordered directly from Income Statistics Division staff at Statistics Canada, as an alternative to using the public use microdata or to obtain detail that is not available on the public use file. All custom products are reviewed for confidentiality of respondent information and data reliability; some suppression of information may be required as a result of this review. Prices for custom products reflect the full cost of producing them. Consultation with Income staff about custom outputs is offered free of charge.

The cost of each custom product is based on the time required to produce it according to the client's requirements. The hourly rate is $91.37
