Is there a target release data for the STEPMOM and STEPDAD variables?

Hi IPUMS,

I would like to use the updated STEPMOM and STEPDAD variables in an analysis. Is there a projected release date for the updated variables?

Thanks!

At this point the IPUMS USA team is still working on re-developing these variables. Therefore it is very difficult to accurately predict when these variables will be available for use. Hopefully by the end of this year, these variables will be ready for release.
