Abstract:
|
For several tax years, the Statistics of Income (SOI) Division of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has merged its U.S. Individual Income Tax Return sample data with selected information documents from the IRS Individual Returns Master File (IRMF) System to create a repository of sampled data and matched information reporting documents. This database has been further enriched by assigning industry and occupation codes to individuals who have filed income tax returns. The occupation codes are based on taxpayers' entries on the income tax return and the industry codes are based on SOI matching procedures for employer information documents. In this paper, we take a first look at selected SOI individual income tax data by taxpayer occupation classifications and industry sectors for Tax Year 2005.
