RETIRED_CPS8

Description

RETIRED_CPS8 indicates whether or not the individual is retired. This variable is the result of a check to confirm that the individual is still retired, as was reported in an earlier wave of the survey.

RETIRED was collected at the time of the final CPS interview, 2-5 months before the ATUS interview. Information on retirement was also collected at the ATUS interview. See RETIRED.
