Notes: The sample is pooled. N = 30,112; SIPP N = 8,898; CPS N = 21,214; SIPP includes at least 250 foreign-born per state/region; CSMI = cross-survey multiple imputation. Significance tests are based on the SE of the difference between the estimate from the 2004 SIPP and the pooled SIPP-CPS:

SEdiff=(SESIPP2+SEpooled2).
