2009 Panel Survey of Consumer Finances

Survey Data

The 2009 SCF panel survey reinterviewed families who participated in the 2007 cross-sectional SCF. Consideration of release of micro data from the panel survey is on-going, but there is no certainty as to whether such a release will be possible, and if it is, how long it might take to produce a data set that provides appropriate protection to the privacy of the survey participants.
