This data collection was developed for general use as part of CURRENT POPULATION SURVEY, 1973, AND SOCIAL SECURITY RECORDS: EXACT MATCH DATA (ICPSR 7616). This file merges information from two administrative sources: the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Social Security Administration (SSA). The starting point of the merged dataset was the IRS Tax Model File of Individual Income Tax Returns, a public-use IRS file designed to simulate the administrative and revenue impact of tax law changes. It contains over 100,000 federal income tax returns subsampled from the STATISTICS OF INCOME sample of the following 1972 tax forms: (1) 1040, Individual Income Tax Return (and its associated schedules), (2) 1040A, Individual Income Tax Return, Short Form, (3) 4625, Computation of Minimum Tax, (4) Maximum Tax on Earned Income, (5) Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File United States Individual Income Tax Return, (6) 4874, Credit for Wages Paid or Incurred in Work Incentive (WIN) Programs, and (7) 4875, Presidential Election Campaign Fund Statement. The nearly 170 items extracted from these tax forms include exemptions, earned and unearned income, income loss, foreign tax credit, medical and dental expenses over 3 percent of AGI, state and local income taxes, and capital gains and losses. To this individual income tax data, the Social Security Administration matched (using the unique identifier of Social Security number) selected demographic information (including such variables as the race, sex, and age of the primary taxpayer) from the SSA's longitudinal summary earnings files for income year 1972. The data are weighted.Cf: http://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR07667.v1
