I am following up on this thread from last year: [Is there a flag for imputed wages before 1988?](https://forum.ipums.org/t/is-there-a-flag-for-imputed-wages-before-1988/1604/1)

Specifically, I’m wondering if IPUMS has made any progress on adding a variable identifying imputed values of incwage and other income variables to the pre-1988 samples of CPS ASEC?
