Description:

This report compares income estimates obtained from a number of different surveys. The primary data sources are: the census, the Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF), the Survey of Labour & Income Dynamics (SLID), the Revenue Canada Individual Tax Returns and National Accounts Personal Income.

Description:

This report compares the income distributions and for average and median income for various groupings of individuals living within private households. It uses income estimates obtained from a number of different surveys.

Description:

This paper sets out a number of summary analyses that support the recommendation to draw a top up sample in the integration of Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) and Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) data.

Description:

The objectives of this paper are to determine the empirical relationships between economic performance, transfers and low income among Canadian families, and to explore whether these relationships have changed over time. Similar recent studies in the US find a weakening in the relationship between economic growth and low income reduction over the past 25 years. Using data from the Survey of Consumer Finances of Statistics Canada, we find that there is a statistically significant negative relationship between economic performance and the incidence of low income among families in Canada for the period from 1973 to 1995. Government transfers are also found to lift families above the low income threshold. These results are robust across different family types and for three different measures of low income.

We also find a weakening in the relationship between improved economic performance and low income reduction for most family types between 1973 and 1995, and for all family types after 1980. This weakening is associated with rising pre-transfer income inequality among families. Increasing inequality has also reduced the negative impact of transfers on low income rates.

Description:

It provides updates on survey developments and issues as they arise. Every issue also includes a brief description of newly released documents in the SLID research paper series.

Description:

This paper discusses the use of some simple diagnostics to guide the formation of nonresponse adjustment cells. Following Little (1986), we consider construction of adjustment cells by grouping sample units according to their estimated response probabilities or estimated survey items. Four issues receive principal attention: assessment of the sensitivity of adjusted mean estimates to changes in k, the number of cells used; identification of specific cells that require additional refinement; comparison of adjusted and unadjusted mean estimates; and comparison of estimation results from estimated-probability and estimated-item based cells. The proposed methods are motivated and illustrated with an application involving estimation of mean consumer unit income from the U.S. Consumer Expenditure Survey.

Description:

A look at trends in transfer payments to families from 1980 to 1994. How have these transfers responded to changes in business cycles and how effective have they been in raising two-parent and lone-parent families above the low income cut-offs?

Description:

In this paper we use administrative data associated with the tax system to: (1) document the extent of intergenerational income mobility among Canadian men; and (2) estimate the income disadvantage (in adulthood) of being raised in a low income household. We find that there is considerable intergenerational income mobility in Canada among middle income earners, but that the inheritance of economic status is significant at both the very top and very bottom of the income distribution. About one-third of those in the bottom quartile were raised by fathers who occupied the same position in the income distribution. In fact, the income advantage of someone who had a father in the top decile over someone who had a father in the bottom decile is in the order of 40%. We also discuss some of the policy implications of these findings, as well as some of their limitations and the directions implied for future research.
