When I click on get data I want data from 2020 but I am only given the options of 2019 and earlier. How do I get 2020? My classmate was able to get data from 2020. ---

The 2020 1-year and 5-year American Community Survey (ACS) PUMS data have not yet been released by the Census Bureau (see the [Census Bureau 2020 Data Release Schedule](https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/acs/news/data-releases/2020/release-schedule.html)). The IPUMS USA team gets the PUMS data at the same time as everyone else, so once it comes out our team will work to integrate them with the rest of our database as quickly as possible. At this point, I don’t have a definitive release timeline of how long that will take, but can direct you to our [revision history](https://usa.ipums.org/usa-action/revisions) that outlines past release dates for the 1-year and 5-year data. We will promptly update the revision history when the data are released and make an announcement via [Twitter](https://twitter.com/ipums?lang=en); additionally, we will send out an email update shortly after the data becomes available.
