Description

SPMSTTAX represents an SPM Unit's total state tax liability, rounded to the nearest dollar. This amount is the same for all members of each SPM family, even if the SPM unit contains more than one tax unit.

Because the ACS does not collect information about a household's tax obligations or if the respondent even filed taxes, the Census Bureau used the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER)'s TAXSIM tool to generate values for SPMFEDTAXBC, SPMFEDTAXAC, SPMEITC, SPMFICA, and SPMSTTAX.

For detailed information about how the Census Bureau derived these measures, please refer to the Supplemental Poverty Measure using the American Community Survey working paper.

SPMSTTAX is a 6-digit numeric variable that is used to calculate the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) for a family. SPMSTTAX specific variable codes for missing, edited, or unidentified observations, observations not applicable (N/A), observations not in universe (NIU), top and bottom value coding, etc. are provided below if applicable by Census year (and data sample if specified).
