Description

For persons who received Social Security or Railroad Retirement (SS/RR) income during the month prior to the interview, SSMOFLAG indicates whether the person's information on the number of months that he/she has been receiving SS/RR benefits since he/she first received such benefits (SSMO) was imputed.

 

SSMOFLAG is part of the Family Resources supplement that provides information on individuals' health benefits, amount of coverage and income received from employment, welfare benefits, public assistance, and savings during the month prior to the interview. Unlike the core survey, all missing data in this supplement were imputed.
